Re: Nikon D800 announced -- 36mp, w/ & w/o AA filter
How does 36mp appeal to you?
This is 50% - 100% more resolution than 5D2 that I currently have. With 5D2 there isn\'t enough resolution for 13x19\" and some cropping, so the extra resolution would be welcome. With 36MP, the diffraction will start to deteriorate the image quality at f/7 - f8, if my calculation is correct.
How does to possibility of buying without an AA filter appeal to you?
I already have a camera without AA filter and would buy it again. Moire does not seem to be a problem. Besides, the new Lightroom seems to have some tools to fix it. So most likely no need to open the image in PS, convert to Lab etc.
Will available lenses provide resolution equal to the 36mp sensor? What are your thoughts on this new Nikon D800?
Most lenses were just fine when we doubled the resolution from 12MP to 21/24MP, so I think most of those that are fine for 21/24MP will be just fine when used with 36MP.
