SINGAPORE - Nikon Corporation proudly announces the development of a new firmware for its Nikon D4S, Nikon D810, and Nikon D750 DSLR cameras, as shared by Nikon Singapore Pte Ltd today. The new firmware will provide support for recording command function with HDMI output to external recorders. Nikon plans to release the new firmware in succession this summer.
The firmware will enable synchronization of recording start and stop with HDMI output from the D4S, D810, and D750. As video recorders will recognize camera operations, recording start and stop commands of the external recorder can be synchronized with the similar commands of the camera. This new firmware will provide greater support for recording of high-definition, uncompressed data that makes the most of the superior resolution of the D4S, D810, and D750, and the excellent rendering performance of NIKKOR lenses, to external recorders. It will also make editing videos that harness superior sharpness and clarity, and rich tone characteristics, more efficient.
Nikon will continue to expand its video recording functions, and provide greater support for these functions, in order to respond to the creative intent of professional photographers, videographers, video creators, and advanced amateurs, so that they may take full advantage of the performance and functions of Nikon imaging products.
Demonstrations of the firmware, currently under development, is planned for the Nikon booth at the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) Show to be held in Las Vegas from April 11 (Saturday) through April 16 (Thursday)1.
