Re: New Nikon D2X firmware update

Usually, the Nikon firmware updates come with documentation. Simply save the file as a PDF, download to your Powerbook or laptop and take it with you.

Thank goodness for PDF files. A lot fewer books to drag along...

Re: New Nikon D2X firmware update

Hi Everyone,


I just checked Nikon Canada's website and the d2x firmware upgrade was released November 2005. It is version 1.0.1. Is this the latest firware upgrade? The description matched the upgrades you detailed. Thanks!


Daniel

Daniel,

1.0.1 is the current version. We are waiting for the release of the next version due out in the next few months.

Re: New Nikon D2X firmware update

I do hope that when and if it comes out, any firmware update will adress the issues with auto white balance, auto exposure, and auto tone.

The results I am getting at the moment are no-where near as good and as consistent as those I was getting from the D1X.

Also, now to top all of theat, I've started to get back focussing on the damn thing.

Its six months old and I'm not a very happy bunny at all.

Standby Fixation, I need some miracles working for me!

Re: New Nikon D2X firmware update

John,

Is the back focus very consistent? Six months seems to be a magic number for me as well. Seems that NPS gets to adjust my camera for focus issues at about 6 month intervals.

Re: New Nikon D2X firmware update

Hello Eric,

No it isnt, just started to notice it lately, last couple of weddings or so.

At first the focussing was brilliant, now I'm notice lots of "soft" images and some that are miles out.

Funny. I've noticed several times that my foccussing seemed a little soft also. And i have Nikon's firmware 1.01 in the camera. At first i thought maybe i wasn't foccussing correctly.

Has any other D2X users been experiencing foccussing problems also?
