we can see some demosaicing problems on texture of the book, some areas containing more than simply no details. Note that this phenomenon is not unique to Nikon, other Canon bodies, Sony have the same symptoms. At Pentax, the 645D offers an image with a bit more relief, the level of detail is a little higher and overall the micro-contrast is more important. However, it is the Aptus-II 8 wins this comparison hands down first with an excellent rendering of matter on the finest details, the difference in rendering is really impressive.
