Hi all,
Nikon is offering a buffer upgrade for the D3, to increase Lossless NEF capture from a depth of 16 shots to 36 for £300.

When the camera can do 9 fps, it runs out of buffer in less than 2 seconds in the worst case, so this upgrade makes sense to me, sensibly priced as well.

A certain person I was talking to yesterday, who I won't name (but likes ukuleles) suggested I play some gawd-awful music on the way to put you off!

With the capabilities of that camera, why did they not make the buffer bigger to start with?

The upgrade is a hell of a price for a bit of memory. Perhaps that's why they are selling it as an add on.

Why not just shoot at a lower frame rate? Precisely how many subjects do you actually need 9fps for?

That really must be a sign of global warming - our tortoise back in the '50s moved at a glacial pace.
