We’ve been playing and testing it out at SLRLounge.com and I love it! You can see my 17-shot panorama to check out its quality. Nikon is on a huge roll right now! Love the D800, D800E, and the D600!!

Very well written comments, let me just say this, the Carl Zeiss prime lenses I use on my brand spanking new SONY A99 outshine anything NIKON OR CANON have not to mention that Sony make the senses that go into both the other brands. But in the end Blair its all personal choice, as long are still living the dream its all good.
 
Cheers

If you’re gonna do a comparison, you obviously need some shots of fine pattern or alike, to see the downfall of no AA filter as well.

Line skipping and column down-sampling result in both unpredictable moiré patterns and flickering (frame tearing). Most of the time this is not a problem, but that’s my beef – pros don’t get paid for “most of the time”.

Red, Alexa.  This camera and the 5D series are going to give you amateur quality (but certainly usable) video but by no means can it compete with pro video.  From a photographic stance, this is top notch for 35mm dslr.

I have noticed that on some of the D800 shots I’ve pixel-peeped that even expensive G zoom lenses (70-200 VR II) are the limiting factor, not the sensor.

Yes, they do it well, and yes I have seen Laforet’s work, but when “professional video” comes to mind, large budgets and resources are (to me) a given. Arri, RED, Panasonic, and Sony are the camera systems I would be going to.
