Nikon D2H vs Nikon D2X

Below is a in-depth comparison of the Nikon D2H versus Nikon D2X, both Pro DSLR digital cameras and both of them are designed by Nikon. There is a significant difference between the sensor resolutions of the D2H (4MP) and D2X (12MP) but they use the exact same sensor size (APS-C).

The D2H was revealed 17 months prior to the D2X which makes the cameras a generation apart from each other. Both of these cameras come with the identical body type (Large SLR).

Before we go straight into a comprehensive comparison, below is a quick summation of how the D2H grades against the D2X in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a preview of the gallery photos for Nikon D2H and Nikon D2X. The full galleries are provided at Nikon D2H Gallery and Nikon D2X Gallery.

When you are intending to lug around your camera regularly, you have to factor in its weight and size. The Nikon D2H features outer measurements of 158mm x 150mm x 86mm (6.2" x 5.9" x 3.4") with a weight of 1200 grams (2.65 lbs) whilst the Nikon D2X has specifications of 158mm x 150mm x 86mm (6.2" x 5.9" x 3.4") having a weight of 1200 grams (2.65 lbs).

Remember that, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary based on the lens you are utilising at the time. The following is the front view overall size comparison of the D2H compared to the D2X.

Taking into account size and weight, the portability grade of the D2H and D2X is 51 and 51 respectively.

In many cases, it is very tough to visualise the contrast between sensor measurements simply by reviewing specifications. The photograph here might give you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the D2H and D2X.

To sum up, each of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same megapixels. You should count on the Nikon D2X to offer you extra detail because of its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The older D2H is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
