Do any of you use Nikon D810's for video? I'm upgrading my cameras in the next couple of months, and I think I'm going to dip my toe into video by shooting a bit of video for promos and 30 second clips on youtube or whatever.

I was pretty happy with my D810's video when I got the camera, but I recently got an Atomos Ninja Blade to pull uncompressed video off the camera's HDMI port and I'm even more impressed with the results. This random cat footage started out as a flat picture control file with a little extra sharpening in camera before it went out to the Ninja, and I think it graded beautifully in Final Cut Pro (for what it is).

After using the Blade's focus peaking and scopes, the D810 on its own feels sort of lacking as a video camera. At least the Blade isn't that expensive an add-on.
