Nikon D800-D800E First Comparison

Link: Luminous Landscape

As you likely know, the new 36 Megapixel full-frame D800 and D800E are exactly the same camera with the exception that the D800E does not have an anti-aliasing filter. Instead, Nikon has replaced it with an optical assembly that maintains the light path (thus allowing the camera to only cost $300 more than the regular D800). In theory the lack of an AA filter allows increased resolution, but also may create potential problems with moire, which it is designed to reduce.
