Originally posted by JohnBee The D3x would be the ultimate rig for those looking to shoot big prints in a controlled setting and most likely in the field too! Even if I craved the resolution and uninhibited output of the 645D.
You're wrong. The resolution is everything for landscapes. The lack of AA filter is the win here. Although D3X sensor has wider DR, the 645D's CCD has better linearity and tonal reproduction.
BTW, I would like to see Distagon 21 vs Pentax DFA 25 comparison, although I'm almost sure the pentax will be better due to larger sensor.
PS Don't be a fanboy like many pentaxians here who's still trying to insist "there's no difference between FF and APS-C". The difference in IQ between even cropped MF and amateur/reporter 35mm format is easily noticeable as well as the difference between APS-C and FF.
