Nikon D2X

Eating, drinking and living photography? Well, then Nikon has something tailored just for a professional shooter like you, its 2005’s flagship digital SLR camera, the D2X.

Equipped to shoot at remarkable speeds, the D2X is an impressive 12.4-megapixel resolution camera with a speed of 5 frames per second. One can increase the speed to 8 fps simply by slashing the resolution to 6.8 megapixels. Displaying a large 2.5" LCD screen, this camera measures 158 x 150 x 86 mm and is not so light at 2.4 pounds. Its conspicuous robust build states its seriousness clearly and indicates that one may not find it suitable for frivolity and fun.

However, crucial factors vital for good professional performance can be seen in the D2X in its advanced instant programmable buttons that take you through its functions without much ado and offer great help, like the instant ‘flash-on’ or ‘flash-off’ buttons.

Furthermore, it has a highly improved and flexible white balance that produces amazing results since increased number of settings and adjustments are possible as per a photographer’s requirements. In addition, five manual settings present here can be identified with your choice of text. What you will love about this extremely adaptable camera is that it doesn’t make one wait for action, and is powerfully swift with a fast autofocus.

This model provides backing for the iTTL flash technology of Nikon through which one can freely manage numerous wireless remote flash units along with the WT-2A wireless transmitter that enables one to transfer images from the camera to a distant site.

All said, the D2X is an expedient and prompt camera designed unmistakably for professionals. However, if you intend to take it around only for some fun pictures in a picnic, it might get a tad irksome with its weight and lofty size.
