- Nikon to provide Picture Control downloads for the D90. This is the email they sent to a NR reader:
“At this time there are no Picture Control downloads for the D90 but they will be made available in the same location as the other ones, http://nikonimglib.com/opc/“. By the way, D3x controls are already available.”

- Surprise, surprise – Nikon Canada is also raising their prices on February 1st (email to a dealer):
“We will be having a price increase on February 1, 2009. Lenses will bare the brunt of this price increase. A number of lenses will have significant increases (Most kit lenses will not increase at that time.) Also, please note that back orders from January that carry into February will not be honored at the pre-February 1st prices.”
