    Nikon D2X digital reflex camera The Nikonians have had to wait a long time for the Nikon D2X. For some maybe just a bit too long. And after the introduction it took a while before the first cameras were shipped. Read more

    While most of us can only dream of owning a high-end digital SLR like the Canon , for professional photographers the high price tag is more than repaid in the extra power and reliability these cameras provide. Read more

    • Rugged body with improved environmental seals, great control layout, long-life Li-Ion battery,high resolution from APS-sized sensor
    • Can't quite compete with Canon's CMOS sensor when it comes to image noise at high ISOs

    This is a great camera, and if you use a "prosumer" camera and then try this, you will know what I mean. The camera is built like a tank, and control placement is near perfect, and yet, when I picked it up for the first time,... Read more or see product
