Several Nikon 1 firmware updates released
Today Nikon released several firmware updates for the Nikon 1 V1, V2, J1, J2, J3, S1 cameras, FT1 adapter and GP-N100 GPS unit. The main fixes are support for the new 32mm f/1.2 lens and continuous AF for the FT1 adapter:
Nikon 1 V1 firmware update 1.30
- Support for AF-C (Continuous AF) focus mode when the Mount Adapter FT1 is used with AF-S lenses has been added. To use this function, the Mount Adapter FT1 firmware must be Ver. 1.10, which supports this function.
- Support for the 1 NIKKOR 32mm f/1.2, equipped with a focusing ring, has been added.
- The following changes to playback zoom for images captured in MF (manual focus) focus mode have been applied.
– 1× magnification has been added.
– The amount of time allowed to pass before normal display is restored when no operations are performed after playback zoom is applied has been reduced.
- When shooting in Electronic (Hi) release mode at 10 fps using the Mount Adapter FT1, the shutter speed displayed with a half press of the shutter-release button and that displayed when the shutter-release button was fully pressed differed. This issue has been resolved.
- The precision of time synchronization when the GPS Unit GP-N100 is attached to the camera and the Use GPS to set clock option is set to Yes has been increased. However, errors in time synchronization using GPS cannot be completely eliminated. Please update GP-N100 firmware to Ver. 1.02, which supports this improvement.
