UK Magazine Amateur Photographer Sat 19 May 2012 have tested back to back Nikon D800E and D800 against the medium format Hasselblad H4D-31.(The Has back tested was 31 mill pix) I think people are going to be amazed that the Nikon at 25% the price has out performed the medium format. I do not want to infringe copyright by reporting exactly what was said. But an interesting point made was that Hasselblad are still on CCDs and these are old hat now compared to the years of development by Nikon on CMOS chips.

In the review they state: The D800s sensor works better in almost every measurable way. They have never seen any DSLR with such high res score as the new Nikons. D800 also is not cumbersome to hold or slow to operate with many other advantages.
