For those who are on top of the game, Norwegian Nikon website released a photo with a broken link to D2Hs specifics. In matter of minutes there were hundreds of miscellaneous topics on this camera all over the internet.

Some are happy, some are disappointed. Some think that Nikon wasted money by "upgrading" D2H to D2Hs

At the end it is up to each individual to decide if $3,500 is worth it or not.

the D2h is 4.1mp.

there's such a minimal increase it doesn't justify the $1500 difference in price.

waste yes.

Nikon really should be trying a little harder.
