Nikon D200, D2x and D2Hs Digital SLR Firmware 2.0.0 update downloads
now available.
The Nikon D200 firmware update is fairly minor, but the D2x upgrade
shows what firmware updates are all about with a long list of camera
software improvements and new image enhancement tools. We all knew it
was possible to improve a camera with firmware updates, but we have
become so used to bug fixes and minor tweaks that this very major
update comes as a real surprise. Sort of like a surprise Christmas
bonus for Nikon D2x owners. A Nikon D2Hs Firmware update has been
released too, it is not quite as extensive as the D2x update but it
also contains a fairly long list of improvements.
