Much. Much-much. A lot much. The D800 isn't built like a howitzer, unlike the 
D3. The single number Nikon's being the wunderbricks, with emphasis on brick. 
They are sealed to perfection and can stop bullets. The D800 is lighter stuff 
and wouldn't stop a .22. I suppose if I kitted it up with the battery drive and 
such it would be more D3 like, but I'm sorta fond of not carrying around so 
much heavy gear, and still getting good pitchers.
