Since the launch of the Nikon D1X D1H simultaneously in 2001, Nikon D ‘single digit’ professionals have been divided into two series – X series is designed to use high resolution such as fashion or landscape photography and H series for use with high-speed photography as photography for sports activities (lower resolution but faster continuous shooting).

When the Nikon D3 was launched in August 2007, this camera does not bear the series ‘H’ in its name but clearly designed for applications that require speed. So, the question that arises is when Nikon will launch a pair D3 is designed for high resolution. After awaited with high antipasi, present also in the late 2008 Nikon D3X.

When viewed directly, the second series seems the twin D3. Camera body, the control panel, the user interface is also largely mechanical machinery & electronics of these cameras use the same thing with the previous D3.

However, the core component of the D3X camera is a completely new component. CMOS 36 x 23.9 mm sensor gives a resolution of 24.5 megapixels. Despite a big jump from the resolution when compared with the D3, D3X users must instead content to accept a smaller sensitivity range (ISO 100 to 1600, extendable ISO 50 to 6400) and continuous shooting is slower, which is five frames per second (7 fps in DX mode).
