Nikonite, I don't think you've understood the OP's problem.

I don't think the 'problem' is with the app, more with the way the camera works. If you have raw+jpeg on one card, you only see one image when reviewing them If you put raw and jpegs on separate cards, you see both when reviewing them. Not that it should make much difference, tbh. NEfs show an embedded jpeg which should be very similar to the jpeg that is shown..

Can you store raw+jpeg on one card and still just save the jpegs over wifi?

Are you speaking of the display on the camera's LCD?  Is it displaying both automatically when you take a photo or is it showing both when you do a manual review?  I found the automatic display rather annoying where it would display each image after a shot (note - I was shooting JPEG or RAW, not both) so I just turned off the automatic part...If I want to look at an image after I've shot it, I just go find it manually.  Doing that, with one or both formats, I can scroll back manually to find the image I want to check.  Even if I'm shooting in both formats, I only see each image once when I review (this is true for my D7000, D600 and D4)...

That timelapse technique looks very cool.  It really lets you appreciate the eclipse, as long as you can find an appealing foreground

Take awesome pictures of the 610 with the 610.....wait I think I created a black hole......

Well, the time has come for me to announce the winners of our Nikon D610 giveaway!

Sifting through the thousands of entries was a challenge as well as somewhat of a painful process.  Lots of people submitted invalid entries; some were even bold enough to lie about their post counts or put in gibberish instead of a URL, etc.  We even got a few fake usernames in the mix, which was entertaining.  Rest assured that all cheaters were kept out of the final drawing.  If you cheated, did you really expect us to give you a free $2000 camera without thinking twice?  Nice try!

At the same time I'd like to extend a big "thank you" to those who actively participated in the giveaway and were active on the forum.  I've enjoyed watching the forum grow since its launch in October of last year, and I'm looking forward to lots of fun times in the future!  While we're not going to be following up this giveaway with another one right away, we do have monthly photo contests with prizes if you'd like another challenge!

For those who were wondering and haven't shot me a PM, this giveaway is being extended until the end of January to give more members a chance to enter.

I am also adding more ways for you to earn up to 110 additional raffle tickets.

- Have 500 forum posts : 10 tickets

- Help another member by answering a question on the forum : 2 tickets PER DAY = up to 100 extra tickets

The remainder of the terms remain unchanged.  If the price of the D610 manages to drop by the end of January, the prize might be updated to include a lens. etc.

Sheds filled with light are my favorite types of sheds. 

I already have a shed thanks.

I've entered in as many ways as possible and I've really enjoyed becoming a more active member of this site because of it. Winning would be great but the reward of interacting with all the other members has been more than worth it.

Saying that I would like options to get over 35 entries as well :-D

 Well Said.

At the end of the day, this is the point. Im enjoying the time i spend on here and the people. Contest or no Contest, i would still be a member here.

The trouble with normal sync mode and short shutter speeds is not about power or sync.

A focal plane shutter does never open fully at speeds shorter than x-sync, because the second curtain starts travelling before the first has stopped. That is why HSS mode strobes the flash, and to do that it must reduce output.

Is it not easier to use a ND filter to get to normal sync speed?

Some optical slaves might be able to fire the flash more than once triggered by the HSS strobe, but lighting will be very uneven since some parts will have one and some several flashes.

If your goal is a backup camera, like for doing wedding photography, then it would be beneficial for the two cameras to be very similar, especially similar controls. You don't want to miss a shot because of mising an adjustment from confusion. If your goal is to have two cameras with different capabilities then that does not matter so much.
