Canon 1D X vs Nikon D2Hs

Lets look more in depth at the Canon 1D X versus Nikon D2Hs, both Pro DSLR cameras by brands Canon and Nikon. There exists a sizeable gap among the resolutions of the 1D X (18MP) and D2Hs (4MP) and the 1D X (Full frame) and D2Hs (APS-C) boast different sensor sizes.

The 1D X was announced 6 years after the D2Hs which is a fairly large gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of these cameras feature the same body design (Large SLR).

Before diving straight to a in depth comparison, here is a brief introduction of how the 1D X matches up against the D2Hs in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

This is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS-1D X and Nikon D2Hs. The whole galleries are viewable at Canon 1D X Gallery and Nikon D2Hs Gallery.

If you are looking to travel with your camera, you should take into account its weight and dimensions. The Canon 1D X features outside measurements of 158mm x 164mm x 83mm (6.2" x 6.5" x 3.3") and a weight of 1340 grams (2.95 lbs) and the Nikon D2Hs has dimensions of 158mm x 150mm x 86mm (6.2" x 5.9" x 3.4") having a weight of 1200 grams (2.65 lbs).

Don't forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary depending on the lens you are utilizing at the time. The following is a front view measurements comparison of the 1D X and the D2Hs.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the 1D X and D2Hs is 50 and 51 respectively.

Quite often, its difficult to imagine the contrast in sensor dimensions purely by researching a spec sheet. The image here will provide you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the 1D X and D2Hs.

As you can see, both cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The 1D X with its larger sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF simpler and the Canon 1D X will result in extra detail with its extra 14 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The more recent 1D X should have an edge in sensor technology.
