->> Most notable they're adding support for 64gb cards and hard to believe but BETTER auto WB. Looks like I'll be able to get to 500,000 with fewer CF changes ;>
On a more serious note, I have one D3 on 2.0 for day/bright and one on 2.01 for night/dark as I felt that 2.01 did a better job of getting and holding focus in dimmer environments but the opposite to be true in brighter locations. Lets hope that they have evened out the AF portion. |

->> Yo! Y! if you need it I have 2.0 archived as it disappeared from Nikon's site as soon as they released 2.01 and now when I went looking 2.01 is gone and 2.02 is the only thing available. Trust me and keep a copy of the previous working FW handy just in case you discover that the newest version is equally successful for what you are shooting.
Just saved an archive copy of 2.01 ;) |

->> I'd like to resurrect this thread for more input. I updated, but then had a couple unusual situations when shooting, so I'm not sure if it's better.
Anyone else? |

->> Updated my D3 bodies, no problems, white balance is even better in low light and also when using flash (not as yellow). Have not done my D3X (no change to WB in that body with the new firmware).
Still not as awesome as my D3S...that body is incredible. Best camera I've ever used. |
