New Firmware for Df?

Is there any possibility that Nikon will update the firmware for the Df, especially in camera picture control and ad Clarity to the mix?

    Doubt it.. Nikon hardly ever adds features into their firmware... mostly only fixes...

    One of the reasons I advocate public domain access to the software of cameras.. Open source people will keep adding features... sigh.. oh well.

    miatab ...be very careful with in camera clarity. Anything + will wreck your JPEGS and - will soften the pics which may be ok for portraits ...my advice ..avoid

    Thank you, Pistnbroke, I'll follow your advice. Both you and Nikon are smarter than I am. Does that + warning apply to all in-camera picture controls, or just Clarity? I have Sharpening turned down, presently. I shoot only JPEG, incidentally.

    If you shoot only JPEG then you need the sharp at + 9 .I have D810 /800 /7100 and have had them all; back to d40 all at +9 ..I shoot thousand of pics a week at weddings and no problems .. If you are using older sigmas the contrast +3 and a bit on the saturation helps..+9 all the way. ( and dont do any half harted 7 or 8 you need +9
