PanoTools NG: Re: D800 + Sigma8 Roger D Williams 2012-Apr-22 15:49:19
The two main camera magazines in Japan, Nippon Camera and Asahi Camera, both carried detailed comparisons of the D800 and D88E in yesterday's editions. Far too much information to summarize here. But in short there is a slight but clear advantage to the 800E for certain kinds of subject, the main difference being a more "solid" or "three dimensional" look to highly detailed structures. Moire was only visible in 800E images under extremely rare conditions. Both articles remarked on how much more sensitive the higher pixel count made images to the effects of mirror shock.
