[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 484839, member: 13090"] While I have no real experience in this area, I have to wonder if the absence of the AA filter (aka the Optical Low Pass Filter) wasn't contributing significantly to the difference you saw between the two camera, possibly more so than the increased resolution? The D7100 doesn't have the filter, while the D7000 does. I've had cameras with OLPF's and without, and I'm convinced that filter affects image quality significantly; so much so I paid to have it removed from my current D750. I point this out in part because the D800 has an OLPF, while the D810E does not. Again, I'm NOT an astro-photography sorta guy but I think this might be something you want to investigate further before you plunk down any serious cash. Maybe it matters, maybe it doesn't but I'd want to know, personally. [COLOR="#FFFFFF"]....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
