| Seems to be to allow support for the new 800mm f5.5 lens. https://nikoneurope-en.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/55915

| Well I am disappointed that there are not more fixes or additional functions added to the D3, D3X or D3s cameras. I really do think that sales of the 800mm f5.6 AFS G are very limited but I guess they need to cover cameras that might be used by agency shooters.

| Seriously of course this is important to the new 800mm lens owners who will be expecting compatibility across the range.

| Robert, re: compatibility across the range. As I have not yet seen a user manual for the 800mm lens, I still wonder why it may not be compatible with some camera's. Note that something similar was the case when the PC-E lenses were introduced. Regards, Gilbert

| I guess that some of the use issues may be that hanging such a heavy weight off the lens mount may cause problems. I dont know but it is a guess!

| JK, re: such a heavy weight That goes for more than one body-lens combination, however: with an 800mm lens any body would be stretched (grin). On the positive side: with something like a D3000 or D600 on an 800mm lens one may not notice any body attached. Regards, GIlbert

| Yes very true, Gilbert. I recently had my hands on a Nikon D600 and was mazed how small and light it was compared to a D800 or D3S.
