12 Years of digital for me... what gear... precipitated your move to d800e...

Back in the days of film

I used various medium and large format cameras in college.

Canon AE1p

Canon A1 (2)

Canon T90

then I went digital in 1999

Olympus C-2000

Olympus C-3030

Nikon D1x

Nikon D100

Nikon D200

Nikon D700 (Sold the D1x and D100 selected get some full frame glass)

Nikon D7000

Nikon D800E (sn# ####704) focuses great, the best camera I have ever owned. But every once while I do wish that I had not sold those old canons. The one quirky thing that I have experienced is, while taking some night photography I bumped the life you switch into the movie setting. The rest of my shots that night were all 25 megapixel letter box size raw files. Definitely not cameras fault this was user error.
