Nikon D7000 Firmware Upgrade

Postby biggerry on Wed Dec 29, 2010 9:46 am

It's been out for a few days now, however for those who have not seen it and own a D7000. Apparently you need to upgrade the firmware a couple of times? sounds like it may be remapping the pixels :)

Bright spots were sometimes noticeable with movie recording of especially dark scenes or subjects. Occurrence of this issue has been reduced.
*After the firmware is upgraded, bright spots may be visible in the monitor while the camera is autofocusing with the shutter-release button pressed halfway in live view mode. However, these bright spots are not recorded with still images and movies and are not visible in the monitor while the camera is autofocusing during movie recording.

nah...not yet, the only thing holding me back is the shape and build and waiting to see what the D300 replacement is. After feeling wendells one I find that the D80 fits me better, however there is a strong possibility it is becasue I am used to it. I want to try one out when I have my D80 with me...

they could have included one of the those funky swivel fold out screen thingys...might give me a few more years mileage on my knees :rotfl2:
