Having extensive experience with all Nikon FX bodies (current or past), I believe that the choice is more on the functioning and how the body suits the owner than the IQ differences between them... all current FX bodies are capable of providing usable results up to 12800 ISO which is considerably better than the previous generation but the D3S... D4 & D3S will have the edge above that value.BTW this morning in C1 I processed a D800E at 150 percent 24x32 300 dpi output and holy cow it looked to have no degradation at all. It handled it very well. Only file I have been able to do that in the past was my Phase files with quality. Just have not tried it on these files yet. I was like right on brother. Nice sidebar
Makes me want to go much further. Lol
OTOH Guy, I process for best print quality and thus I never upsample or downsample an image... My conclusion is that sampling can never benefit a print... no matter what PPI the print comes out (as long as there are more than 72ppi available to be printed) and I do print in my studio 7.8m2 per day (year average) on my Epson 9900. It's best to choose the nearest printing size to the required one, so that printing DPI divide accurately with output PPI. The reason for the above is that sampling doesn't add printing density on the printing area, but does induce artifacts, while the printing density remains constant. By having the DPI of the printer to divide accurately with the output PPI of a given picture we avoid both sampling artifacts and printing artifacts too.
