a Nikon film shooter mate of mine was asking me the other day about digital saying a friend of his has a D1X with the upgrade to shoot sports. Which im assuming = a faster fps and/or buffer size
i shoot Canon so im not up on the latest with u blokes
can anyone shed some light on this plz?
ahhhh ok, whats the upgrade. A firmware thing or a physical take out put something better in type of thing. Im trying to talk him into 2x D 70's as ive used them before and they kick arse!
There is a Buffer Upgrade possible on D1X. Firmware upgrade is something different. For firmware upgrade, the internal software in camera is loaded with a new one but in buffer upgrade, internal memory capacity is increased so is a physical (hardware) change. You can do firmware upgrade yourself but for buffer upgrade need to send in D1X to Nikon service center.
buffer upgrade is the main thing - and firmware upgrade is available too. How expensive is buffer upgrade if you don't have it? Just interested to know.
I don't need it - cause I got the D2h -- smokin fast at 8fps
