Oddly...all but two are shot at f/8? One at f/10, and one at f/4.5. I want to see some wide open shoots. What would a camera like this bokeh be like?
The bokeh will be identical as bokeh is a function of the lens and not the sensor. The only difference is that the bokeh blob will be 1000px high rather than 750px in a lower res camera.
The Nikon sample shots do reveal that stopped down, the Nikkor zooms appear easily capable of resolving 36MP even out to the extreme corners of the frame. Quite impressive. The question does remain, however, how good is that 14-24 going to hold up into the corners at f2.8? Also notice that nothing is really shot at higher than f/8, since diffraction would probably start to rob your images of crispness at anything higher.
I suspect by putting up most of the shots at f/8, they are doing their homework on marketing. f/8 seems to be the ideal sweet spot for lens performance but avoiding diffraction, leading to maximum detail/sharpness. This is not a surprise when you're selling your new 36MP camera as the "detail king".

I have been looking for this all over the place, this one feature would make the D800 a consideration, but at 36MP and 75MB RAW it is not of interest to me. They add an sRAW option and then I might consider it.
If you're not going to shoot at 36MP, don't buy a D800? There's literally no point?
