Not about what you asked but I wanted to mention it. How does your camera respond to a large number of images taken close together?
I say this as my camera froze last weekend when I tried to do a 20 shot mosaic portrait. I had changed my memory card settings to SD card primary and CF card as secondary. I think I will swap it around to CF as primary as they read and write faster.
You don't want a freeze in the middle of a sequence.
Also consider the time to save all these images and then the resulting slower frame rate afterwards.
As far as exposures go with D800 you would be smarter to slightly underexposed than overexposed. Highlights are lost but as you know with D800 you have 2-3 stops of usable shadows you can recover. So a smart strategy would be to slightly underexpose and preserve the highlights and recover the shadows in post processing.
