NIKON D50 is one of the most sold models of Nikon brand. It it\'s a really well done DSRL camera. Now that the D40 is next to be released there are some features that should be added via a firmware update.
These are the most requested features:
1) The new Nikon D40 and the other Nikon D models EXCEPT THE D50 have the function called -WHITE BALANCE FINE TUNING-.
2) The D40 (and other models) allows also to customize one (or more) buttons (the Self-timer button in D40) while the D50 DOESN\'T (the self-timer button could be used in the same way of the D40).
3) Some models (ie D80 and D40) allow to do incamera editing (image overlay, filters, increase some colors saturation, etc).
The D50 now it\'s in the middle of the Nikon product line and it lacks features that are common in all the other models.
It\'s simple, in terms of programming, to add these features and it will be an answer to the requests of MANY users (especially regarding the white balance tuning).
ADDING THESE FUNCTIONS WON\'T DAMAGE THE D40 MARKET!
-------------------------------------------WHAT WE ASK------------------------------------------------
that AT LEAST the -white balance fine tuning- is added as soon as possible with a FIRMWARE UPGRADE.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are confident that our request will be satisfied by NIKON.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned
I logged on this morning and just stared at the screen because I really did not think so many people cared about the white balance fine tuning as much as I do. It is honestly blowing my mind that we have this much momentum right now since I felt like I was shouting into a void when I first started this whole thing.

Why do they leave us with old software? It makes no sense to not add these features when the tech is already there.

Honestly it feels like nikon just killed support for the 50 as soon as the 40 came out. Total junk move.
