Nikon D3 Digital SLR firmware v1.10
16/04/08
Nikon are pleased to announce that version 1.10 of the D3 firmware is now
available from the support section of the Nikon site.
In version 1.10 the following improvements have been made:
- A Vignette control item has been added to the shooting menu. For
information regarding supported lenses, see the supplemental manual.
- A Focus point brightness item has been added to the a6: Focus point
illumination setting in the Autofocus category of Custom Settings.
- The Highlights playback display option has been moved from Display
mode>Basic photo info>Highlights in the playback menu to Display
mode>Detailed photo info>Highlights.
- When shutter speed and/or aperture are locked with shooting in live view
mode, using the L (command lock) button, an L icon is now displayed in the
camera monitor.
- The size and colour of Demo displayed in the monitor with playback, when
No memory card? in the Custom Settings is set to Enable release, have been
modified.
- The range of settings available for ISO sensitivity settings>ISO
sensitivity auto control>Minimum shutter speed in the shooting menu has been
increased from 1/250–1s to 1/4000–1s.
- When a compatible Speedlight or Wireless Speedlight Commander is used,
the AF assist illuminator now lights regardless of the focal length.
- When shooting in hand-held live view mode and the frame is magnified
prior to autofocusing, the display now returns to the magnified display
rather than full-frame display.
- In some rare cases, the image area visible through the viewfinder and
the image area actually recorded differed when Image area>Choose image area
in the shooting menu was set to DX format (24x16). This issue has been
resolved.
- In some rare cases, white balance was not accurately calculated for
images captured at a shutter speed of around 1/4 s in P and A exposure
modes. This issue has been resolved.
- When attempting to crop images at an aspect ratio of 4:3 using the Trim
option in the retouch menu, the cropped image did not have an accurate 4:3
aspect ratio. This issue has been resolved.
