D800 Moire?

Any of you guys having problems with Moire on the D800? I'm tossing around either getting the 5d mkIII or D800.
 
D800 has serious moire in 720p mode like the older Canons. It really looks quite bad especially when stopped down a bit. In 1080p it's ok. It's there but avoidable.
 
Indeed, I was only talking about 1080p. I wouldn't shoot in 720p unless strictly needed and in very controlled situations.
 
In the D800, the filter blurs fine detail slightly, on purpose, to ward off colour problems such as moiré. In the D800E, the filter's blurring effect has been nullified. The result should be more finely-detailed photos from the D800E, accompanied by an increased prevalence of moiré swirls in fabrics, patterned objects and the like. The D800E's probable fine detail upside comes with a potential colour artifact downside, which is why Nikon is touting the D800 as the standard version and the D800E its more-specialized counterpart.
 
@ kaushalsingh, were talking about the moire in video mode, which is quite the same between the d800 and the d800e, thats why a extra filter can be beneficial to combat these aliasing occurrences.
