That must be how they plan to do the Nikon D800E with no low pass filter.
Since the dust shaker models have come out its 2 filters. So one is the UV/IR and one is the AA filter.
I also notice there is a company MaxMax who modify DSLRs and one option is for high definition filter. It must be an optical flat glass replacement for the AA filter to effectively create a D800E out of any camera. The downside would be moire patterns on some objects.
