EU law mandates these measures.

A couple things I wish could change (mostly software, so maybe Nikon is listening?).

- Have a way to block the ISO never to go below 200. When I quickly move down from a high ISO, I want to stop at 200. If I go too far (in a hurry) to 100 for example I get no benefit from it only a degraded dynamic range. It's like being able not to go into "digital zoom" mode on compact cameras.

- Have a "RAID 0" like writing to memory cards, i.e. one picture to card 1, the next to card 2, the following one to card 1 etc (you get the point). This will empty the buffer faster and will enable to last longer at 9 FPS.

- A hardware one: the memory cards door is actually the spot where much of the weight of the camera is supported when hand holding it. This is a fragility as the door is not that well engineered to support pressure (D3 + 24-70 is 2.5kg, with a heavier lens and/or flash it doesn't get better).

And about your grip on the AF/AE-L button not available in vertical. Not an issue for me (although that won't help you), as I by default disable the autofocus on the release button on all my cameras and use the AF-ON instead (which is replicated in vertical).
