Hi guys,

The new Nikons are rolling out, and users are getting them in their hands. I am glad to see Nikon getting into some progressive territory with video functionality, but see a couple areas they could improve with simple firmware updates.

- remap a button function to the right side of the camera to be the digital zoom focus check. I have used Canon's with the focus check on the right side, and I have used Nikons with the focus check on the left, and I can say, it make a huge difference for fast pace shooting. Big big difference. I am the big picture.

- D-lighting or dynamic range mode in video

- partner with technicolor or similar company to make a 'CINE' picture profile.

- and the less likely... 60 or 120 fps in crop mode.
 
Don't hold your breath....hackers will update the firmware long before Nikon do. We tried to petition them for manual controls with the D90.....still waiting. The first thing that needs fixing is the 24Mbit/s bit-rate.
