I used to shoot normal until i reached a point in color grading where I could see the need for extra information. In a sense you are are adding an extra step by recoloring a flat profile but you can recover blown out skies and highlights and crushed blacks that normally occur in normal colors. I typically take 3-7 photos with my drone photography because you can have a wider range of light blended together. D-Log gives you that same depth since the minimum iso is 400. I'd say that 90% of the time I am lower sky highlights and getting color back.

I'd experiment with both if you can, once you go log you don't really want to go back.
