No problem. Once I get my server sorted out I'll try to upload raw  
files. The TIFFs would have been far too big for flickr (60mb, anybody?)

The D3x still has an AA filter, and while it has the best per-pixel  
detail I've seen, it doesn't come close to the M8/DMR/CFV. Those  
cameras have no AA filter.
