Canon 1D vs Nikon D2Hs

Its time to look more closely at the Canon 1D versus Nikon D2Hs, both Pro DSLR digital cameras by competitors Canon and Nikon. The image resolution of the 1D (4MP) and the D2Hs (4MP) is fairly well matched but the 1D (APS-H) and D2Hs (APS-C) boast different sensor sizing.

The 1D was revealed 4 years prior to the D2Hs which is quite a sizable difference as far as tech is concerned. Each of the cameras feature the same body design (Large SLR).

Before delving right into a complete comparison, here is a concise overview of how the 1D matches up against the D2Hs when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Here is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS-1D & Nikon D2Hs. The full galleries are available at Canon 1D Gallery & Nikon D2Hs Gallery.

If you're looking to carry around your camera regularly, you will want to take into account its weight and size. The Canon 1D comes with physical measurements of 156mm x 158mm x 80mm (6.1" x 6.2" x 3.1") having a weight of 1585 grams (3.49 lbs) and the Nikon D2Hs has specifications of 158mm x 150mm x 86mm (6.2" x 5.9" x 3.4") along with a weight of 1200 grams (2.65 lbs).

Take into account, the weight of an ILC will differ based on the lens you have chosen at the time. The following is a front view size comparison of the 1D vs the D2Hs.

Taking into account size and weight, the portability grade of the 1D and D2Hs is 50 and 51 respectively.

Usually, it's difficult to imagine the contrast between sensor sizes only by looking at specs. The picture here will help offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the 1D and D2Hs.

All in all, both of the cameras feature the identical MP but different sensor sizes. The 1D uses the larger sensor which will make achieving shallower depth of field simpler. The more aged 1D is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
