User davexl posted very interesting samples from a D800E showingt the cure of moiré at apertures of f/11 and...

Now of course I can't claim I knew this what camera this is or even that it has been taken with a compact as old as eleven years. But: In everything other than very precisely controlled lighting...

Every reply so far has been poining to (clones of) add-on battery/vertical grips. I think I've made it pretty clear in my OP that this is exactly _not_ what I am looking for!!!!! If I thought the...

As far as I can see they only offer add-on battery/vertical grip clones, which is _not_ what I'm looking for! -- www.datzinger.net

Please note that I'm not asking for a vertical add-on grip like the original MB-D12, but a deeper sculpted replacement for the camera's built-in grip (via replacement of the rubber part that will...

I didn't mention the 5D at all! -- www.datzinger.net

My main gripe (sic) with all Nikon DSLRs I've yet had in my largeish hands is the grip. And the D800 isn't exactly a step forward in this regard. Hand position is just wrong/cramped for me, at...

Well that's the problem, the curves panel doesn't have _those_ controls, it has some that sound similar/the same, but they do entirely different things!

I tried the new controlls in the Beta from a few months ago - can't say I found them more intuitive at all. There are blacks/shadows/highlights/whites sliders in the basic panel (god knows what...

Good to know! Regards, Martin -- www.datzinger.net

Anything to say about my comparison of HDR in general to the autotune junk that's being played all day in pop radio stations? Or is your argument really "I don't like the style of one of your...

Care to elaborate how photomatrix has anything to do with this? -- www.datzinger.net

Both technologies were made to automaticly cover up weaknesses in the source material and thus add no artistic value whatsoever. With all the levers to max, autotune really sounds like a load of...

I just cancelled my pre-order because of this and the apparent AF issues. Nikon, do you read me? If you are launching 1.: A high resolution camera, be tight with AF precision 1a.: A high...

Because clearly they don't look like OOC JPEGs (which is good). I suspect Lightroom with luma NR off and sharpening 100@0.5px/Detail 20/Masking 0? Because the noise rendering looks very familiar to...

You just had to take these with a 5D Mark III, didn't you? :D ;) -- www.datzinger.net

Exactly. It is in the very nature of digital aliasing, that the aliasing artifacts have a much smaller frequency than sampling frequency. Which means, if not removed, they will be visible even in...

Thank you for the comparison! Confirms to me why AA-filter-less sensors are useless for me. Sorry, I just don't have the time and nerves to paint the moire removal in LR4 over each and every file...

A local dealer just told me that to him it is inbetween D700 and D7000. If true, this definitely isn't a remotely good thing for my hands. He will call me as soon as he has another sample and a...

If this truly feels even worse than the D700 that I had used a couple of times in my large-ish hands, I'm seriously going to rethink my pre-order. My D7000's grip is a catastrophy, after the D200...
