Upgrade of D700 to D800 - Handheld Question

Like any camera, if you want to print big (and the D800 will allow you to print big) and make the absolute most of the high res sensor then you need to take lots of care. Talk of tripods is misleading as this doesn't take into account high shutter speeds.

The misunderstanding is that some people wrongly believe that the D800 will be worse than a lower res camera when compared like for like. It won't.
