New addition to my camera bag (Nikon D2Xs)

I recently purchased a new D2Xs and I am very happy with it. It has many features that I really like that were not in D2X. Many people asked me if there is any improvement in the noise and I did a mini review here comparing files from both cameras.

D2Xs

Main Observation: I have not seen much difference in the image quality between D2X and D2Xs. I am using ADOBE CAMERA RAW (ACR) to view and convert RAW files as it is one of the fastest RAW coverters I have seen till now. However when I view or convert the images from RAW to JPEG using Nikon NX the files are much much better. There is a significant difference between the ACR and Nikon NX converted files. I cannot stress enough how beautiful the files looked when using Nikon NX. Bad thing about NX is its too slow. My plan was to buy a Canon 5D just for shooting images at higher ISOs but instead I opted to go with Nikon D2Xs and there are no regrets.

Update: I recently upgraded Nikon NX 1.0 to 1.0.1 and its much better now. I am able to convert more than 1000 raw files to JPEGs without any problems.

Settings (85/1.4 lens) D2X D2XS

ISO 1600, F5.6, 1/15second JPG, NEF JPG, NEF

Currently I own D2H, D2X, D2Xs and a couple of D70 (converted to IR) cameras ( I sold my D200 ) 70-200/2.8 VR lens, 17-55/2.8, 10.5mm, 12-24mm, 85/1.4, 50/1.4 and few other not so fast lenses.

It’s this simple.
Not everyone sees the beauty in the details anymore.

While many are shooting wider, faster, and flatter—we’re still here, focused on the quiet, meaningful, intentional moments. The kind that slow you down. The kind that last.

If muted, mass-produced wedding coverage isn’t your vibe—you’re in the right place.

We’d love to hear about your story, your vision, your details—and share a little of ours too.

It’s time to get focused, planning brides. 🎯
Let’s make sure nothing that matters gets missed.
