I can see some benefits in no AA filter if it includes no IR filter,
then camera would be useful for Astro, IR, scientific and forensic work.
I am not convinced of how useful no AA filter would be in general or
studio work. I feel Nikon let the measurbators win on this. I don't
think there is a need for a pixel count that high.
