If you're planning on adding video you'll need a heck of a lot more than one extra camera. That being said, they're just about equal in terms of video performance, though there's a little more moire-ing from the 800e (but it's also sharper)

In our recent shoots we used Nikon D800 and all I can say is that it rocks. From what I know is that since D800e is prone to moire more then 800 due to not having a filter. D800 video burnt on BD gives excellent HD video. I am vey happy with D800 not sure if I would ever want 800e.

I too am trying to add short video clips to my wedding slideshows .What I would like to know is...how do people adapt to manual focusing ( eg. On 5d mk2 or mk3? ) For wedding situations. I have been experimenting but find it so hard to follow focus when the subject is moving eg simple situation...bride walking down the isle. With a dedicated video cam no problem, but with dslr it takes quite a bit of skill. I have tried the lcdvf hood type viewfinder cover , I have seen the dslr "rigs" with gear focus, external screens etc . But that is a lot of expense. Does everybody realise that video with a dslr is quite different from using a camcorder?

With manual focus you're going to want to avoid tracking movement that is travelling towards you. It takes pro-level skill to keep that smooth. You figure out how to shoot it well without relying on that particular approach.
