Which one to buy, Nikon D800 or D800E

[Lance B]

Yeah I've read that entire thread, interesting read, but at the end of the day, they mostly agree that there is a difference in resolution of about 1%
Either way it's there, no matter how minute. no one said its a huge difference anyway which is where people may make the decision that the tiny benefit is not worth any extra money. And you also agree that printing at full size may show differences.

Also any post processing introduces unwanted artifacts, which reduces resolution, therefore, less processing equals more res at the output stage. There's nothing untrue about that.

You won't be able to detect the differences in IQ or see the artifacts, that's the whole point.

Below is a quote from their thread

According to van der Wolf, when differences show up, they will probably be in low contrast microdetails at spatial frequencies near theoretical max (Nyquist). This is because OLPF on the D800 is pushing the (unsharpened) response down near Nyquist, and the extra sharpening needed by D800 may not be able to pull these low contrast details out of the noise.
