Onn Henner (Facebook | YouTube) on shooting in he wild Tanzania with the Nikon D800:

Last March I spent 11 days shooting in Tanzania, using two Nikon D800 bodies with Atomos Ninja 2 as an external recorder.

My goal was getting the maximum quality from the D800. Whilst most of the cameras today have internal 4K the Nikon has 1080P with a bad H.264 codec and it suffers from antialiasing and moire. The solution was combining the Tassin flat picture profile together with the Atomos Ninja 2. That way I was able to get flat and clean video with Avid codec which was great later for postproduction.
