Manuals of product D2X
Editorial note
The Nikon D2X stands out for its exceptional image quality, thanks to its 12.84 MP CMOS sensor and a maximum resolution of 4288 x 2848 pixels. This allows for capturing every detail with great precision, thus providing an enriching photographic experience. Additionally, the flexible compression system (NEF, JPEG, TIFF) optimizes data storage and transmission, catering to various photography needs. The user experience is generally positive, particularly due to an accurate optical viewfinder and various flash modes suited to shooting conditions. However, some aspects could be improved. The weight of 1070 g may make prolonged use uncomfortable for some users, and manual focusing could pose challenges for those seeking quick use in dynamic situations.

Finally, the 2.5-inch screen size may seem small by current standards, potentially affecting the image viewing and composition experience. In summary, the Nikon D2X is a high-performing camera, ideal for those seeking superior image quality and a variety of features.
