I could not handle video when I was given a Sony Hi8 as part of a promotion years ago when I got a laptop. Only ever used it for my first ever digital stills and then gave it away to my nephew.
I would rather work on a complex lighting set up for a single still image than work out a few minutes of movie sequence that would hang together.
People obviously think this is the up and comming thing though. Link to Redrock site and their imminent release of pretty fancy DSLR video accessories. Check the thumbnails.
