Nikon released new firmware update 1.11 for the Coolpix A camera that contains several AF fixes. Here are the download links:
Full list of changes in this firmware update:
- Focus range with normal autofocus has been changed from approximately 50 cm (1 ft 8 in.)–∞ to approximately 30 cm (1 ft)–∞ from the center of the front surface of the lens.
- AF focus-acquisition rate has been improved when the scene contained in the frame exhibits an extremely high level of contrast.
- The color of the focus area in manual focus mode has been changed to white, making it easier to identify the current focus mode.
- Less battery power is now consumed with interval timer photography, enabling interval timer shooting for a longer period of time when the camera is powered by the battery.
Even more than an year after it was announced, the Nikon Coolpix A camera is still priced at $1,096.95 (the gray market price is $665.24).
