Nikon hacks get a little better.

Just had a look at Nikon-Patch and found a few new tweaks for my D3200 and D610. Not sure if I missed the D3200 54mbps option but it's still nice surprise. The D610 BETA 54mbps HQ has been running without issue but keep in mind that if you install/select that option, you will lose in camera playback.

Update 9/29/2015

I gave the D610 1080/64mbps setting a go and it looks great. Below is a screen shot from Bitrate Viewer. ***Be warned that you will lose playback functionality with this hack. Also recording time will be knocked down to just ~8.5 minutes. 1080 NQ is still good for ~22 minutes.
