New Nikon D850 Firmware Released Today!

Nikon just released a new firmware version for the Nikon D850 DSLR camera today. The changes from the prior version are as follows:

• Added [Portrait impression balance] to the photo and movie shooting menus. For more information, see Supplementary Firmware Update Manual. To view NEF (RAW) pictures taken using firmware version 1.30 or later on a computer, you will need to update NX Studio to version 1.3.1 or later and Picture Control Utility 2 to version 2.4.14 or later.

• Fixed an issue that resulted in attempts to initiate [Lock mirror up for cleaning] in the [SETUP MENU] causing the camera to display the message “Disable [Network connection] in the Bluetooth menu” and lock the mirror in the down position, preventing it being raised for cleaning, when [Enable] was selected for either of the following [SETUP MENU] items:

  • - [Bluetooth] > [Network connection]

  • - [Airplane mode]

Also, Nikon states the following: This service supplies software that can be used to update the D850 camera “C” firmware to version 1.30. Before proceeding, select Firmware version in the camera SETUP MENU and check the camera firmware version. You will not need to download or install this update if the firmware listed above is already installed.

1. • This update includes all changes made in previous updates.

2. • Users of NX Studio and Picture Control Utility 2 will need to update to NX Studio version 1.3.1 or later and Picture Control Utility 2 version 2.4.14 or later.
