    How much are D2Hs now?

    at a price of 1999 US, the d2h is unbelievably good value. I'm seriously considering upgrading..... i've seen places in US that can even get it at abt 1800US w/o tax for brand new. i won't say i've maxed out the d70 even (my skill level not that good), but there have been more than one...

    How much are D2Hs now?

    Are D2hs still in production? If not, how much does a new one cost now? And how much are 2nd hand ones going for? Are they compatible with nikon's new sb600/800 flashes?
