Which colour space should be used for video on D800 sRBG or Adobe RGB and why? When I'm working in AE and C4D I usually work in sRGB because that helps with the whole Linear workflow....workflow. The Adobe colour space is larger but what is preferred i video on a Nikon?

There are many guys using the 'flat' Picture profile for 5D's ( http://prolost.com/blog/2012/4/10/prolost-flat.html ) does the same Picture profile apply to the D800? I know the Nikon will no doubt produce a difference picture than the Canon but is the principle the same?

Thanks
 
re: picture controls
yes, it's basically the same principle, and Prolost Flat would work too, but it's definitely more wiggly than on the Canons

check my Flaat too, so far it's in beta state only, but on the D800 it seems to work quite well
