Btw. D800E still has AA filter, just different kind (Nikon designer or whoever that was explained that somewhere).
It effectively does not have an AA filter. One of the components which would make it an AA filter has been changed so that it has no blurring property thus technically it does not have a working AA filter.
Its created by two layers, one splits rays, second one puts them together. When its normal AA, its two layers that both split rays, creating pretty much gaussian uniform kind of blur (which is why its so easy to regain sharpness).
Theres slight problem, that those two layers are still glass (or plastic) and they still manipulate light, I dont believe it will work same as true AA-less camera (with just thicker IR filter instead of AA) and samples show that they dont work same as AA-less sensor.
Problem is that proving this would need volunteer and MaxMax. Tho would be nice to know what would MaxMax say on this topic.
