I read today that there is a new firmware for quite a few cameras that corrects barreling and some other things. Anyone confirm this.

Where did you read this?

As far as I know, the latest updates are A 1.02, B 1.03. I think they came out around November 2011. I hope I'm right.

Well, I see nothing about this on the Nikon website. So I can't say if what you read is true or not. But I suspect this update might be just to give cameras data to the new released lenses (18-300, 24-85). But again, I don't know for sure.

I also can't find anything solid on this info.

it could be handy if it covers the 18-105 kit lens. (barrel distortion at 18mm and pincushion distortion at around 45mm).

I installed the new firmware without any problem.The "L" number was renewed to 1.006.I have a 18-105 DX kit lens, but have not time yet to try if there is any change in barrel distortion.

I am very often reproduce my wife's painting.
I made this one with the 18-105 kit DX lens, with Automatic Distortion Controll=on, Zoom at 35 mm .
I think it is a good result from this lens. Without ADC would be terrible.
