I am curious how many Nikon lenses can match the 36MP resoluion on D800. My impression was that many (or some?) lenses already struggled a lot on the 24MP D3x.
Another question is on the lens diffraction. For a 36MP FX, at f5.6 the diffusion circle of red light is already larger than the sensor pixel size; while for the blue light the diffusion circle starts to become larger than the pixel size from around f10.

Well to make a start on compatible lenses, look at the sample images:
14 - 24 [ x3]
70 - 200VR2 [x3]
24 - 70
No surprises, of course.
