Replacement for D300??

No need to answer if this doesn't matter to you! The dog photos taken at 6400 ISO. I have a D300s but cannot get that same - or similar clarity and detail at 6400. I am glad you can! I like the D300s and not bagging the camera ok? But technology and sensor algorithms have moved on ... I for one once started a thread saying that apart from the 12 FPS or whatever it is people want, I would be interested in a D400 without the anti alias filter - just like the D800E - or Leica M9 or Pentax K5 IIs ... I got a lukewarm response, which is fine with me, no need to jump onto the same bandwagon, but I still think there is more to sensor technology that a bayer pattern @ 12Mpx ... if I liked Sigma better as a whole concept I would have been very interested in the Foveon technology too. To my uneducated eye the removal of the anti alias filter is the next best thing!

"Nothing" - as you put it - is in the eye of the beholder ... why do you think there forums are full of gearheads that put emphasis on the last drop of quality? I started this thread because I found the sensor "interesting" ... nothning more, nothing less.
