Few images from the Nikon booth at the PDN Photo Plus Expo 2010 that took place in New York last week. On the show floor, Canon had the largest booth followed by Nikon and Sony. The most common question I heard visitors asking the Nikon staff was “When will the D700 be replaced”. The answer, as you can imagine, was “I don’t know”.
A short walk-through video of the Nikon booth (sorry, shaky hands):

Here are the download links for the latest Capture NX ver. 2.2.6: Windows link | Mac link.
Changes in this version:
Nikon posted also this message in their “Answers” section (related to the warning they issued on Monday):
Today Nikon released View NX version 2.0.3 (they skipped v. 2.0.2): Mac link | Windows link.
There is also a new version of Camera Control Pro (2.8.0): Mac Link | Windows link.
What’s new:
Modifications enabled with Ver. 2.0.3
– When the White Balance setting in the Adjustments palette was changed for NRW (RAW) photos taken at an ISO sensitivity setting of Hi 1 with the COOLPIX P7000, the entire photo took on a magenta cast. This issue has been resolved.
– In some rare circumstances, the correct hues were not displayed when a third-party (not Nikon) monitor profile was used. This issue has been resolved.
– An issue that prevented exporting a project from Nikon Movie Editor as a movie file when Use background music on the Audio tab is checked has been resolved.
– An issue that prevented ViewNX 2 from starting correctly under the Danish version of Windows XP has been resolved.
