Nikon D5000 Documentary

[silentwolf999]

@nikonaustralia at 1:34 is that fisheye or wideangle?

[meetJelly]

Giving it to kids isn't a test! Those kids have had technology since the day they were born. The real test is giving it to an old person!!!!!

[skylahughesco]

@cheetodude24 i presume the gap concerning what's semi pro and pro is small today. d7000 is all everyone need. visit... freedslr dot com change dot with . and take a way to bring home completely new Nikon D7000

[VeRmInSnAkE]

"Try turning that big thing" Amazing photographers 0:23

[Keifer92]

In an ocean park like that, FLASH is extremely prohibited.

[Nintend0rk64]

...Why

[midge211]

what lens kit did those kid use?

[freestylefilmsinc]

im going to sound stupid hear but im comming from hdv's has the kit lens got a focus ring or not

[SuperTheKing1999]

i dont like the idea that kids can use it and get good pics makes camera to easy 2 use

[12Silverbullet09]

Why would you film a high quality video only to post it in 360p?  Just a thought.

[camz25]

how can i use the fisheye setting during movie mode?

[UKNiall]

0:44 should have flipped the screen down man

[TheTinkle]

It really stitches my stomach when I see children running around with a DSLR.

[countersk]

which one is better Canon EOS 1000D Kit EF-S 18-55 mm (10.1 Mpx) ORE Nikon D3000 + 18-55mm f3.5 - 5.6 AF-S VR (10.2 Mpx)

[caiopmb]

I bought this camera, sold it and bought a t2i. Thanks God I did it. I don´t want an easy cam I want the best, more featured and complete camera my money can get.

[Ishcoa]

I like how the girl mouths what the boy says.

[JC040696]

Yeah, the documentary is kinda cool. A nine year old being a photographer? Sadly, Im confused. How's this compared to the Sony Alpha 550? Im talking grip, user interface, picture quality, iso settings and so on.

[WaterPhoenix93]

Oh wow.. I'm totally stuck.

Can you guys help me out?

Canon 500D or the D5000?

I was decided on the 500D before this clip XD

[JC040696]

@WaterPhoenix93 Take the D5000. Canon's lenses are like duplicates. There are lenses that are the same but the difference is the presence of IS(Image Stabilization)

[dingo27mobile]

@WaterPhoenix93 consider 550D instead of 500D

[KeaneshapedTardis]

is there a mode where you can film in HD with the fish eye effect on?

[xx74g5]

is it normal for the little green light to flash for a second when i attatch or remove the lens on the d5000????

cheers

[nikonaustralia]

@xx74g5 Hi, no this is not normal. The only time the green light should flash is when you insert the SD card. We recommend you to get in touch with your local service centre to get the camera checked out.

[xx74g5]

@nikonaustralia but other people have told me its normal, and the camera is working totally fine ?

[xx74g5]

@nikonaustralia ok, thanks for your oppinion but this morning i called NIKON CANAD and spoke with a customer service agent and he told me this was totally normal, he even tried it with a camera he had and said that the same thisng happened and its normal. i also emailed them with my question and this is what they said : Yes, it is normal for the SD card light to blink during all those functions. so thanks but i`ll go with what nikon says =) cheers

[Kiljan137]

@xx74g5 i read on another video in the comments that it is normal. that is weird.

[tjacass]

@nikonaustralia hey guys cool video! I'm planning to buy this camera for sure, but it has no auto focus motor installed so that means I have to buy a lense that comes with auto focus right? And this is gonna cost me how much compared to the D90? Please respond! THANKS!!! :)

[nikonaustralia]

@tjacass don't worry about the motor thing as there are over 30 AF-S lenses available + all the kit lenses for the D5000 are AF-S. Unless you have older AF Nikkors, this will never be an issue as all new lenses have the built in auto focus motor.

[MrLarrend]

how much is that in australia?

[nikonaustralia]

@MrLarrend The RRP ($AUD) for D5000 in Australia is: $1399 (body + 18-55VR), $1699 (body + 18-55VR + 55-200VR), or $1199 (for body only). Go to Nikon Aus website for authorised retailers. Hope this helps!

[MrLarrend]

@nikonaustralia thanks :)

[1514jazzman]

Did they keep the camera

[Chair1137]

hello nikon, im am getting a d5000 for my birthday, and i was wondering what lens would be good for taking really close up macro photos, such as flowers and small insects? Thanks, alex.

[nikonaustralia]

Hey @thatgirlray. The kids used a combo of lenses, including the 18-55mm VR, 55-200mm VR, 18-105mm VR, 105mm VR macro and 10.5mm fisheye.

[thatgirlray]

What lens do they have on there?

[nikonaustralia]

Hey @cybersaif. Well I think you could guess the response from us. The D5000 really is brilliant...test one out in a store for yourself.

[cybersaif]

plz advise me Nikon D5000 best or Sony Hx1 or Canon 1000d plz plz

[cmh1959]

i am 13 and i love taking video and pictures soo i think im gonna get a nikond5000 other than the canon t1i because of the screen and scene modes so what do you think would be better for my first dslr

[scottishrailfan123]

@cmh1959 im just turned 14 and i was going to get a d3000 but now ive decided on the d5000

[sanjuacharya]

@scottishrailfan123 D90, TRUST ME

[scottishrailfan123]

yes , like i said , im 14. never used a dslr. and your telling me to spend £800 on a camera i will not be able to use ?

[sanjuacharya]

You would be able to use it, trust me. But after I got used to using the D5000, it got harder to control manually. The D90 helps a little more with that.. . I love my D5000, but I regret not getting the D90 instead.

[scottishrailfan123]

thanks for the advice, but to be honest i cant afford a d90, the d5000 seems the best for the money in the price range i can afford

[rubeboi]

@scottishrailfan123

then i would say save up the money and wait till yu can get the d90, i have the d5000 its awesome in all perspective, but when you want to learn about photography, d90 helps alot since its not as much automated as the d5000, so ur forced to learn it, instead you just switching to auto mode and start taking pics, if that was the case, why didnt yu get a point & shoot..right. bottom line, d90 is worth it in the long run.

[scottishrailfan123]

man i havent got time to save up for the D90 before my trip to africa, plus i dont want to be carrying a £850 camera around all the time. trust me i will be able to make good decisions about what settings and not what the camera thinks :P

plus, if i get a cheapish body then i can spend more on good lens which in my opinion matters more !

[artwithliam]

if its your first go for the nikon d3000 much simpler and trust me u wont use all the features on the d5000

[sanjuacharya]

@cmh1959 Get a D3000. Its got no live view or movie mode, but its still ok. Or else, get the D90, its worth the little extra. TRUST me. I have the D5000, I hardly regret it, but I still think I should have got the D90.

[Gannaso0]

lool at the 1:17 you will see that when he is talking she is moving her lips with his words; cause obviously they were given a script to memorize and she got over whelmed..

but its a great camera, I just bought one and its phenomenal...

cheers

[yubi91]

wow i truly love the picture at 2:27 beautiful

[Gannaso0]

yea.. it is..

[jwevvin]

The person who is commenting about the frames per second: 24fps is what Hollywood movies use - it's about the look of the video, not the quality. 30fps is more camcorder ameautur stuff.

[RamiroR]

I was going to say that, why would I want 30fps if I have 24 which is much better in my opinion,? comibned with that 16:9 aspect.. it's just GREAT.

[dobson17586]

OK, it's all well and good that children can use the Nikon d5000. But now what I'd like to see is something shot by pro's that make use of the interchangeable lenses and manual camera settings, much like the videos that demonstrate the Canon digital slr's.

And I agree that 24fps is limited, it'd be great if the next model could also record 25, 30 and even 50fps.

[kzrick188]

2:33  flash+glass= :(

[mike50333]

"I'm gonna run down that hill and you're gonna film me!"

Adorable. lol

[diozzolino]

what objective is that?

[dirtypaper]

is the quality better, than when its posted on youtube, because of compression?

[dissembled]

i took my camera out to the beach once. it died the same day.

[dlanojdrew]

its camera test to introduce the d5000, bought one and i think it a good camera though. I lend it to my nephew who is 4 years old put on auto focus and did few decent shots. I still love the canon though:)

[ahmednh]

Haha, at 1:19, you can see the girl lip-syncing what the boys saying from the script.

That's some acting. :).

[quirky524]

Thats well spotted.

[ryanyu59]

@ahmednh agree

[laurelhicks9]

@ahmednh bahah yeah i saw that!

[44racerangels182]

My father got me the d90 as a graduation gift since he knew i was into video editing and taking pictures. Now i dont find the rolling shutter on the d90 that much of a problem cause i got some pretty steady hands but does the d5000 have a rolling shutter and give you a jello effect when shakin?

[calv1124]

yeaappppp, it's something that occurs on all CMOS sensors. But you can fix it with an add on for after effects

[Sanyu888]

what you mean by add on for after effects? i thought rolling shutter may ruin the clips quality?

[quote909]

Everything Was So Out Of FOCUS :0

[quote909]

Those kids need alot of pratice with these cameras,

they should start out with something more simpler not a DSLR

[wolfpaws94]

well , the camera is intended for newcomers to slr cameras.

[Sresare]

still

[lautjepik]

I've seen alot of amazing D90 footages on Vimeo, is there a difference in videomode comparing d5000 to d90??

[snobordinJACboi15]

I am a little concerned.... Nikon is making it seem a little more like a kid's camera.

[Thinkproduction]

i wouldn't let a kid use my D5000

[Heritage1969]

Why not?

[funnytrance]

ooh nice............

[MannyHMo]

My wife just bought the Nikon D5000. I got nervous however when I saw the picture with the child 'playing' with it while wading in the ocean. I've always believe that salt water will completely destroy your camera and you can kiss it goodbye.

[chickenwarrior]

Most impressive was the video shot externally of the kids. Much better lighting and less rolling shutter than I would have expected.

[truew0rd]

2:24 not so good

[iryusufhashim1]

it doesn't have built in AF motor in it, so beware...

[wth1980]

Hook this camera up with the new AF-S 50mm 1.4 and the new DX 35mm 1.8 and you´ll be doing FINE!

[HoyFilipinoBoy]

Is the video from the D5000 really that clear? 4 Frames Per Second sounds kinda sketchy. The Nikon P90 has 13 Frames Per Second, does that make the P90 have better quality than the D5000? Sorry, im kinda new at this stuff and im trying to find my first SLR camera :P

[coolxy2]

4 fps when you take photos (no live-view)....not video

[rockergrrrl]

It takes photos continuously at 4 frames per second. It records video at 24 frames per second, which isn't all that much considering most point and shoot cameras record at 30 fps.

[seef0]

There's something not quite right about a pair of tweens playing with a camera that growups would really think twice before forking out a bundle of cash for. Envious? Moi?

Looks like a fantastic camera, though.

[TheOvercastgirl]

Somehow though, I think thats a bit harsh. I'm 15 and photography is my favourite thing to do and my camera , A Nikon D60 is my most prized possession. If they have a intrest in photography, then why shouldn't they use a SLR? And in the video they said they 'gave it to the kids for a day' meaning it wasn't actually theres, they were using it for the one day. Of course though, i'd be more careful with my camera :)

[seef0]

Well, I hope you enjoy you camera. I'm borrowing a friend's Canon EOS 10, and wow, is it ever complicated. Like they say, you've gotta pay (attention) to play.

[coolwaterdvr]

Nice demo. Was that a stock lense? Is it the 18-55? It doesn't look like it.

[coolxy2]

They had many different lenses: the 18-105mm, a 105mm Micro, a 10,5 Fisheye .........

[robertop19]

Lense?

[Tauntontone]

Camera's and sand, not a happy mix, even if it is digital, the grains of sand will still screw up the focus and zoom.

[WellsBrothers]

Sweet!!!

[fanzFZ50]

105 macro and 10.5 x the price by 3

[NoChanceProductions]

i like the cam. a lot.

[desdelossatelites]

Stupid sick bastards!!!! You don't know that??? flash photography hurts to the fishes!!

[IncurableSasori]

this commercial is one of the reasons why I still want to buy D90 more than something like d5000

[wth1980]

It´s amazing how much value for money you get in this type of camera now. I´ve recently been trying out the D90 and D300 and with the same sensor this will set a new standard for this type of performance in a more compact sized body. Nikon has done it again!

[Chrisjr2007]

DSLR this days has change!AMAZING!

[hellmano]

"dad can i please borrow your 800€ camera im just off to the park"

[LoveAmericaStyle]

Google Jeff Fisher World Peace forever

Tell everyone and everyone Buy Nikon for they really make fantastic cameras.

[Tolbert1906]

At 1:18, the girl starts mouthing the same scripted words the boy is saying.

[CaptainBestephar]

lol, didn't see that!

[foxyfella]

Thank you for that tolbert, excellent observation.

[fergfergferg123]

i preffer my nikon d3x and my Sony Pmw-ex1 ,

I also have a d60 which is very good

dslr have reallly moved on they are now very common and easy to use

nikon have really over taken canon now!!

I don't think this camera is worth the price , you would be better going with the d300 or d200

because they have a lot more feature of a camera rather that the video and ease of use!

[Wit]

I think you're forgetting who the d5000 is marketed for. d300 and d200's are much better cameras but they are a separate class of camera for truly serious and working professional photographer. I do think the price of the d5000 is a bit steep for the consumer esp in this economy right now but it's cheap compared to a d300 at twice the price for a body only.

[fergfergferg123]

i i was going to buy this i would get a little bit more money to buy d100 if i could get hold of one. probably worth it.

[tabamoura]

you gotta remember that the d5000 shoots HD video too. so the price isn't that bad at all

[n40798]

Was that little boy using the 105 afs micro from 1:53 - 1:58?

[mavislincoln]

wow you really achieved how you wanted it to look and it looks so easy to be used maybe a 2 year old could use it.I also love how the screen can be lifted out and turned around. wow cool haha

[tjj2productions]

Not many upgrades no. The D90 has it all for almost the same price? the only 'big difference' is the LCD-screen.

[gixxer4646]

Please close that flash !!!!!!!!!!!!! aahhh

[czpiot]

I'd rather see Nikon spend some time on fixing up features on the D90, than releasing a cut down version of it, that is just about $100 cheaper. But hey, I guess "the ultimate test on how user friendly the D5000 rally is" by two kids is very important as well ;)

[tjj2productions]

Not many upgrades, nice camera. But that kids with a semi-prof camera is ridiculous. use them for a Nikon compact video or something :P

[LTF85199]

Not many upgrades? are you kidding? Live View, articulating LCD screen, HD movie all on an SLR at a low entry level price. Only wish they had a faster processor to accommodate a higher fps burst and improved 30+Video frame rates.

[peteherron]

...and there's just randomly a fisheye on for some of the shots. They would never explain that though, of course. Wow.

[yumagetbullet]

OMG :( :( :( i ordered nikon d60 2 before .. why i didnt wait few days :(

[LTF85199]

call and cancel it or return it.

[telemart]

Nice camera

but could you please load this video as HD, it would help me a lot for deciding if I want it.

[numb5r]

wATER pROoF??!!

[MadSon011]

no thats for only for the higher up nikons

[LTF85199]

that really should be a mandatory standard feature on all $600+ DSLR cams

[ichirootaniguchi]

i wonder if the lens got messed up lol

[renzshigeno13]

ang ganda amp!

[chrisparemailloux]

sweet

[blaaaaaaah2]

The D5000 looks pretty promising, and we'll see how it matches up with the T1i. It's a shame though that the articulating LCD isn't VGA-resolution, though.

We'll also see if the new screen will lead to a rise in self-taken, non-mirror DSLR shots used as profile pictures on Facebook or Myspace. Ha! ;)

[timmyguy13]

hahaha

[LTF85199]

Nikon, excellent new camera, Love the articulating LCD screen, wish it was opening to the left rather than down, Very useful HD video capture integration. Are you guys planning on developing a mirror-prism free technology like the micro four thirds in the near future? to make the overall size of the cam + lens smaller?

[blaaaaaaah2]

I'm not sure if Nikon would go that route, just because of the smaller sensor size. I'd prefer to stick to the larger, 1.5x sensor sizes that's being used now.

[LTF85199]

No the size of the sensor doesn't necessary have to be smaller to accommodate a

mirror-prism-free configuration. The micro four third uses the exact same size sensor as the bigger body four thirds. I am sure Nikon will eventually develop such a system because it is the future of cameras, less mechanical movements. I just hope they get to it sooner than later. Panasonic, Olympus and now Samsung have this types of cam on the market already.

[MarkAM1994]

First comment! Woo, go Nikon! I'm so going to get this SLR!
