Thanks for that, Graham.

It comes as no surprise to me ( being a 16mm film maker of old) that the D800 doesn't pass muster. I have been vocal here on this issue ever since Nikon introduced the video feature on their DSLRs. The ergonomics are all wrong. No matter how good the IQ, you will always be fighting the equipment.

In fact, this whole subject leaves me a little annoyed...that I have to pay for this feature that adds unecessary cost and complicates the still camera I want. It's the main reason I have resisted upgrading my D3.

It's about time Nikon started a module approach to cameras...where we buy the base unit and then buy add on software functionality modules for the extra features that we want.
