The 1D MII N was brought out 21 months after the D2H making the cameras a generation away from one another. The two cameras come with the identical body type (Large SLR).

Before diving in to a more detailed comparison, below is a simple summation of how the 1D MII N matches up against the D2H in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Here is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS-1D Mark II N and Nikon D2H. The entire galleries are available at Canon 1D MII N Gallery and Nikon D2H Gallery.

All in all, both of the cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The 1D MII N due to its larger sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Canon 1D MII N will give you greater detail having its extra 4MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop pics much more aggressively. The fresher 1D MII N is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
