A few years ago my micro 4/3's gear was for special situations where I had lots of light and did not need fast focus. Now my Nikon gear is for special situations, my Leica M9 has been sold and my micro 4/3's gear is my everyday shooting equipment.

I use the D800 and mFT and I would say that I am essentially using the D800 in the role MF film used to play where a more deliberate type of shooting is used {landscape, architecture, astrophotography etc} the areas in which it excels . With mFT being the lightweight flexible go to kit, when convenience trumps all other factors. For video it is a no brainer mFT { GH2 at the moment} wins hands down , not just because the hacked GH2 delivers great results, unless it is tripod based  or mounted on a crazy rig FF DSLR are just not ergonomically designed for video.
