I do have an L bank declared in my firmware list, it is L=1.004
Since this is all firmware driven the presence/absence is changed by a new firmware version being installed.
I do have the latest D800 firmware version installed so now I just need to update the L firmware bank.

Best I can find out is it works for jpeg automatically and for NEF only when using ViewNX or Capture NX2.

Says jpeg auto corrected for linear distortion. I would think this was in camera?

Not sure how this plays in with the new data update firmware.

Interesting.

I suppose I should RTFM. :rofl:

It took me awhile to figure out, just slow I guess, what RTFM was. I saw it in Ed's post but it wasn't until I read Eric's I caught on. :doh:

Sorry to bring up the owners manual issue. I do enjoy reading them from time to time - always learn something new. But I do understand some, if not most folks adversion to going near one. :rofl:

And I am guilty of selective blindness - the D800E has an L field. i guess I just didn't see it.

Anyway, took the cameras for a day in the mountains. Thought you might like these.

Thanks Ed, that looks very refreshing. We have been suffering through over a week of 105-110 degree heat index days with at least another 7 forecast. Daily major storms with sever winds, hail, and winds. Over 1 million folks without power. At least 7 deaths as a result of trees falling on homes or occupied vehicles.
