Wonderful images and discussion in this thread. I could wait no longer and purchased the D800E along with the "holy trinity" of Nikkor lenses as well as a Nikkor 50mmG 1.8 prime. Time to list the Pentax gear on the chopping block.

Thanks all for such an excellent thread that I have been following for some time. I am giving into the the FF madness. Time to put my beloved Pentax gear on the chopping block. Unfortunately, the inconsistent AF in low light has been killing me with my K-5. Don't get me wrong, I love the K-5 but I am tending to miss a lot of moments when candidly shooting my kids in low light where I don't want to use a flash. I have been looking for an excuse to upgrade to a better, more advanced system and have been eye balling the Nikon D800.

I think they look great as well @todd.
Can you believe that one of mine is a finalist in Ron Howard and Canon's Project Imaginiat10n? Voting is taking place now. Yes, taken with a Pentax K-5 and it is a "pseudo-HDR". And, no, you do not have to use a Canon to enter the contest. I am a Pentaxian Baby ;)

Thanks GeoJerry. I used Photomatix for the tone mapping and Photoshop for the rest. You might this interesting as well: Confessions of Post Processor - Part II by Frank C. Grace (Trig Photography), on Flickr
It is a great example why I love the Pentax K-5. I shot the original image 1 full f-stop under exposures and was able to pull out a lot of detail in all the shadows. I underexposed to nail the clouds just right. Shot this at ISO 80 as well using the DA* 16-50mm.
