Yes but it will cost you about $4000 for the software.

My D4 works so good I'm afraid of screwing it up with a firmware update! I remember making my Canon 1DMKIII go from awesome to aaahh crap in one swoop of a firmware update!

Yup - weren't some people having an AF-C focus consistency problem? I'll bet there's a few special fixes in there that aren't in the documentation.

There usually are more fixes and tweaks than they admit to.

I will update it for sure. The other day my D4+400/2.8 vr+tc x2 III couldn't focus on the eagle because of lack of contrast : milky sky. I hope the update helps.

I just did the firmware update. I don't currently use a tc, I am wondering if I will notice any difference in the AF.

Have people been complaining about the D4's AF? i haven't heard that many complaints about the D4. Don't have a TC 2.0 and why would I want to put Format in My List. Improving the AF would be a plus, but currently it seems excellent, better than the D3s.

Getty had so many issues with them that they only use them for remote cameras at sporting events right now.
