Nikon D2Hs Rapid Response & High Performance, Outstanding Operational Efficiency, GPS compatible

Nikon’s professional digital SLR

for action and sports photographers delivers a winning combination of speed, image quality and workflow efficiency.

Rapid Response & High Performance

Outstanding Operational Efficiency

Up to 50 consecutive shots at 8 fps

High-speed processing, high-performance components and a new larger buffer with faster memory access increase the number of consecutive shots to as many as 50 JPEG or 40 RAW (NEF) per burst.

Immediate response & ultra-short 37 ms shutter lag

Instant power-up, a class-leading shutter release time lag of a mere 37

Color modes and sYCC support

Adding to the flexibility and efficiency of its three available color mode settings, the D2Hs introduces sYCC color space support to JPEG files for a wider gamut that can fully exploit the output capabilities of the latest color printers.

Ready for the rigors of every assignment

Built to perform reliably, the D2Hs features a lightweight, rigid magnesium alloy body with an enhanced sealing system to provide outstanding resistance to moisture and dust, as well as a highly durable field-proven shutter unit.

Nikon Capture 4 (ver 4.2*- optional software) The unique, powerful and expandable environment

milliseconds, and optimized systems throughout make the D2Hs ready to

shoot whenever the decisive moment may arise.

Faster, higher precision 11-area AF system

The class-leading detection range and flexibility of Nikon’s advanced 11-area Multi-CAM 2000 AF module features improved focus precision with faster subject acquisition and subject tracking capabilities.

Wireless data transfer and camera control

Exceptional Image Quality

New image processing engine improves image quality

Further refinement of the image processing ASIC produces finer gradations with smoother transitions across the color range and purer color rendition for natural, more lifelike color reproduction.

GPS compatible

External GPS units can be connected via the	Advanced lithium-ion battery system
optional adapter cable (MC-35) to store the
latitude, longitude, altitude and UTC (Coordinated
Universal Time) of a shot in the file’s metadata.
High-resolution 2.5" LCD	The system features a compact rechargeable
	lithium-ion battery that delivers improved longevity
	capable of approx. 2,900 shots per charge, linked
	to accurate real-time system status displays on the
	LCD monitor.

provides the fullest control over processing Nikon’s RAW (NEF) files for optimum results, and enables extensive remote control and transfer options for all Nikon D-SLR cameras. Version 4.2 incorporates sophisticated new tools to increase productivity and creative control even further.

*Nikon Capture 4 (Ver. 4.2.1) is required for working with RAW (NEF) files from the D2Hs. Nikon Capture 4 (Ver. 4.2) can be updated by downloading the Ver. 4.2.1 updater.

The optional Wireless Transmitter WT-2/2A supports IEEE 802.11g for faster transfer speeds, while maintaining full backward compatibility with IEEE 802.11b networks. Wireless security options are strengthened and a wider variety of network protocols supported, including the revolutionary new

PTP/IP protocol that enables complete wireless remote control of the camera from a computer. The D2Hs is also compatible with the Wireless Transmitter WT-1/1A.

Nikon DX Format JFET image sensor LBCAST

Nikon’s exclusive JFET image sensor LBCAST combines optimized resolution of 4.1 effective megapixels with speed and low power consumption to deliver maximum performance.

Color accurate Auto White Balance

Improvements to the metering technology for refined Auto White Balance reduce the effect of ambient light on color reproduction for greater consistency when shooting with Speedlights, and for better results when shooting under low lighting conditions.

An all-new higher resolution 2.5-inch 232,000-pixel LCD monitor delivers clearer, flicker-free image playback at up to 15x magnification. An improved histogram and new selectable RGB Histogram displays allow for quick, easy and accurate exposure confirmation.

Improved information displays

Nikon’s intuitive menu navigation uses color coding and large type to further improve operational ease, as do the new menu help function, chronological Recent Settings list, and the World Time menu with world map to keep Exif data current across differing time zones.

Extensive selection of compatible Nikkor lenses

The Nikon F lens mount assures unprecedented compatibility with the expanding family of digital dedicated DX Nikkor lenses as well as Nikon’s comprehensive lineup of AF/AF-S Nikkor lenses long favored by professionals for their outstanding auto focus performance, superb color, high contrast and smooth rendition of out of focus areas in backgrounds.

Versatile software supplied

Updated to better satisfy professional demands, Nikon’s PictureProject software provides fast and easy access to powerful image management, editing and sharing tools. Features include automatic file import, drag-and-drop organization, easy CD/DVD archiving, and plug-in filter support for flexible expandability.

Nikon’s exclusive i-TTL flash control delivers excellent flash exposures, even in bright light conditions. Advanced

Wireless Lighting enables total remote operation over the versatile functions of up to four groups of multiple Nikon SB-800 and SB-600 Speedlights. The D2Hs is also compatible with the SB-80DX and other earlier Speedlights that use D-TTL flash control.
