[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 532214, member: 9240"] If you own Sigma glass I would recommend [B][I]always[/I][/B] checking with them regarding compatibility issues with any Nikon bodies, new or otherwise, before buying or upgrading firmware. Sigma will update the lens firmware on any Sigma lenses [I]for free to the original owner[/I], so if you have a lens that you want to use with a new body, check with them and arrange to send it in for updating. The process takes about a week and only costs you the shipping to them. With that said, [I]be smart when updating camera firmware[/I]. Just because new firmware is available it doesn't mean you need to update. Check and see if the update fixes something that's impacting you. Chances are if you weren't waiting for it, you don't need it, and if it ain't broke don't fix it. [/QUOTE]
