Don't share the idea with anyone, if it's good they will absolutely steal it with zero credit to you.
Totally, 100% agree with deltrav.
Shoot a few scenes yourself, with your own money and own it. You can put it on sale at clips4sale, get a domain name to point to your clips4sale store, and promote it on forums/boards related to your niche. Watermark the clip with that url and upload a few samples to the tubes. Depending on what you are actually shooting, this could be as little as a couple hundred dollars in expenses. Do this and test the niche.

Don't partner with any paysite unless you already have a viable, working product because all the big guys can steal your idea. If the content is as easy to shoot as you say it is, their economies of scale in the production department, will pulverize you.

Stay small and quiet if the idea is good.

expect a small niche site to cost you at least $10k as deltrav pointed out.
If you plan to update somewhat regularly (once a week or once bi-weekly since it is niche), you can break even in 3-6 months with 100 members at the average $29.95/month membership fee.

If you think your idea can hit at least 100 members, go for it.
