Nikon D3 Firmware Update Withdrawn

After reading a blog from Moose Peterson, Wildlife Photographer and Rob Galbraith of Digital Photography Insights, Nikon had released a new update to the firmware on the D3. The update, V1.10, addressed issues and items that extend the cameras already fantastic capabilities. I downloaded the updates and installed them into my D3.
