The absence of AA filter allows the D800E to theoretically snap pictures with sharper resolution, and it allows the camera to preserve even more details.
The one-point spread between Nikon’s D800E and the D800 is so small that it can be considered a draw – the two are practically identical. Both cameras had exceptional performances in every DxOMark sensor quality category, and will almost certainly exceed the expectations of photographers.

Nikon D800E score is the best camera score ever recorded at DxOMark Lab, Nikon D800E captures the Top position in Sensor ranking list, the second DSLR in the list is Nikon D800 and the third is Phase One IQ180 (Digital Back)3
