Nikon D2Hs vs Nikon D3X

Let's look a little more closely at the Nikon D2Hs vs Nikon D3X, both Pro DSLR digital cameras and they are both built by Nikon. There exists a big gap between the sensor resolutions of the D2Hs (4MP) and D3X (25MP) and the D2Hs (APS-C) and D3X (Full frame) posses different sensor measurements.

The D2Hs was manufactured 5 years earlier than the D3X which is quite a big gap as far as technology is concerned. Both the cameras feature the same body design (Large SLR).

Before delving straight to a step-by-step comparison, here is a simple introduction of how the D2Hs grades versus the D3X when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Below is a sample of the gallery pics for Nikon D2Hs and Nikon D3X. The entire galleries are available at Nikon D2Hs Gallery and Nikon D3X Gallery.

In case you're aiming to travel with your camera frequently, you will need to factor in its weight and measurements. The Nikon D2Hs has outside 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 D3X has proportions of 160mm x 157mm x 88mm (6.3" x 6.2" x 3.5") along with a weight of 1260 grams (2.78 lbs).

Take into account, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ based on the lens you are utilizing at the time. Underneath is a front view dimensions comparison of the D2Hs compared to the D3X.

Factoring in dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the D2Hs and D3X is 51 and 51 respectively.

Sometimes, it is tough to visualize the gap between sensor dimensions only by going over specifications. The image underneath will give you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the D2Hs and D3X.

To sum up, both of these cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The D2Hs due to its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF trickier and the Nikon D3X will offer you greater detail due to its extra 21MP. Greater resolution will also help you crop photos way more aggressively. The more aged D2Hs is going to be behind with regard to sensor technology.
