Plainly, both cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The D800E due to its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Nikon D800E will give you more detail utilizing its extra 24 Megapixels. Higher resolution will allow you to crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The newer D800E should have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
