The
Nikon D2H is a professional-grade
digital single-lens reflex camera introduced by
Nikon Corporation on July 22, 2003. It uses Nikon's own
JFET-

D2X digital SLR. The D2Hs was discontinued after the introduction of the
D300 and
D3 models.
Like most Nikon Digital SLR cameras, it uses a "
DX Format" sensor, which applies a
crop factor compared to
35 mm film of approximately 1.5×.

light metering system, faster subject acquisition and tracking algorithms to the Multi-CAM-2000
Autofocus module, and expanded both the JPEG and RAW continuous shooting buffer.
Nikon also reported improved noise reduction at high sensor sensitivities. The
ASIC image processing was changed to 12-bit from the original D2H 8-bit. Auto
White Balance was altered with improved low color temperature lighting, mixed ambient, and
speedlight lighting. SYCC color space was added, and
Exif compliance was adjusted from Exif 2.2 to Exif 2.21, DCF 2.0, and DPOF.
GPS support and improved wireless support (with WT-2 transmitter for 802.11b/g) were also added. A new LCD...
