Nikon D7000: Low Light Test (ISO 1600)

[trynottocrash]

why dont you learn to use your D7000 properly? you can clearly tell that your a canon fan or are you just trying to make canon look better on purpose?

[mikeprdct22]

canon is the best

i am nikon fun boy

[AAARvideos]

Umm...did you color-correct this footage or is Frankfurt have that much yellow lights?

[HardeyLeone]

LOW light or not that video was fucking shot.

[ezycreazy]

too much yellowish...

[ElectrofilmsENT]

@ezycreazy Yeah the operator needs to learn white balance.

[brainsare]

@ElectrofilmsENT Actually, European countries very often do have yellow tinted glass on the street lights. This is what most EU cities look like at night.

[ElectrofilmsENT]

@brainsare Ah, alright. I guess at that point it is really left up to the shooter to decide whether he wants the original look or a white-balanced look.

[brainsare]

@ElectrofilmsENT You don't set white balance so all light look like daylight, you set WB so the camera records a signal as close to the naked eye's interpretation as possible. In this respect, the uploader has done the right thing, from a classical photography standpoint.

[dndiz]

music video shot with d7000 go to (Dzmac hustlers way) on youtube you will see what your camera can do.......

[PhuNguyen88]

lol Mercedes taxi lolll !

[tuttoirlanda]

Finally I got my D7000 from a real phisycal shop , after shipping back the faulty one I bought on Pixmania :D

[Uberdelinquent]

d7000 to much of noise.... too bad for filmer who wanna use d7000 as vid cam~

[MrTapasBar]

white balance!!!

[Nature1400]

I'm loving this camera :)

[krasav4ik82]

I am using 500m f1.8 and 35-70mm f2.8 no matter what aperture and iso 200 but footage gets so noisy. Did you retouch the noise? Dont tell me its original footage - I will consider you a liar :-)

[MatDaveShow]

damn taxis are white mercedes?? i love it

[Nainara]

@MatDaveShow :D that's germany. <3

[vickie2491]

How much does this camera costs??

[krpcannon123]

@vickie2491 $1400-1500

[Traice007]

Hi, since two weeks I own a D7000. I'm using a Tamron 17-50 f2.8 and had some night shots @ 24fps and ISO 1600 and shutterspeed of 1/50 with f2.8 but my footage is very noisy! How dis you get this clean footage at ISO 1600?

Everytime a record at night with ISO 1600 my footage is really noisy so I want to know wich settings u used so I can check if my Nikon is all right.

[GacusanAMVs]

@Traice007 maybe you have to change your white balance or it might even be the lens itself

[defraince]

the camera will not over heat.. used to film 10 weddings.... awesome body

[chrisniemann1]

Very cool test, I just got the D7000 for video to complement my D700 and have found myself using the D7000 more than the D700 because it is lighter and has video and still capabilities.

[leroibonois]

to much yellow for me !

[johnblaster]

Nice fake thumbnail. Reported.

[DonnieGQ]

wow taxi over there are amazing.

[Canon5DMarkIV]

It's nice that you deactivated all the ads! I don't know any youtube partner who would do that...

[2009korte]

brill

[StationZeroOne]

hmmm ... ahh ... ok ... zuschauer mit falschen "info-bildern" anlocken :D

[Eagleizer]

Looks a bit choppy. The cars are jumping forward/backward, skipping frames. Is that the camera that can`t keep up?

[DiNcMe]

Why was one lane of the cars moving backwards? lol

[90tegra]

@DiNcMe

That lane belonged to the Asians

[subseeker]

Quite twitchy video, not so smooth anyways...

[rofllmaoqwerty]

i own a d7000 and i tried using it for fireworks pic, it's with ISO 100 f/11 with my shutter on bulb(for more than 30sec.) and i noticed a black spot somewhere in the middle rofllmaoqwerty.tumblr(dot)com/­post/2704286326/happy-new-year

here's the link, does it happen to yours too?

[RubenCraninx]

How long can you use the D7000 to record movie before it gets overheated ???

[FenchelJanisch]

@RubenCraninx

Between 9 and 20 minutes. It depends on how cold or warm it is...

[r4nd0m1z3d]

@FenchelJanisch How long do you have to wait before you can record again when it reaches 20 minutes and is overheated? People say you can restart recording after 20 mins, but wouldn't that overheat the camera if you continuously keep restarting the recording after every 20 mins is up?

[SasaFreeman223]

@FenchelJanisch FenchelJanisch what i most do? Im am recordint at ISO 1600 and my video is so noisy and blurry...

[LG1674]

@FenchelJanisch you telling me, i cant record more than 20min with the D7000? if i want to shoot music video, is this a good camera to buy?

[HardeyLeone]

@LG1674 That guy does not know shit. Best get a book on it ;-)

[ElectrofilmsENT]

@LG1674 a Canon

[TasteForDisaster]

@FenchelJanisch what!? a camera like this can get overheated? and in only 20 minutes??? I was looking at this, and the fact that it had hd video made is also very appealing, but I want to make some music videos with it. the filming would take more then just 20 minutes D: and how much memory does 20 minutes take up?

[JillM101]

@TasteForDisaster

hey the reason they made nikons and other dslrs have video is for added features like for short music videos, commercials, to show motion and lots of other reasons. but the camera sensor is not made to be used for 20 minutes straight, so the sensor can burn out if it over heats. it automatically turns off after 20 minutes as a safety feature and it won't work again until it has cooled down...

[TasteForDisaster]

@JillM101 I see.... hmmm, ok thanks

[ElectrofilmsENT]

@JillM101 That's why you buy a Canon. In two and a half years my 5D mk 2 has never over heated. I shoot hours on end.

[cnnfllsht]

@RubenCraninx 20 minutes

[DeadRightHand]

@RubenCraninx In a filmmaking setting, shooting in takes (30 sec. - 3 min. at a time), I use mine all the time for 8-10 hour shoots and never had it overheat. It'll only overheat if you're shooting long continuous clips. If you stop recording between takes, it won't be a problem.

[CrimsonRGU]

@RubenCraninx SLR's overheat?

[amb5991]

I'm in German II, we just finished learning about transportation in Germany. Taxi drivers like to invest in good taxis.. and seeing as how Mercedes is German.. why not?

[comrade86]

wow mercedes taxi?!? Where do u live?!?

[themanisheab180237ce]

@comrade86 its frankfurt in germany... mercs are made there so theyre cheap az

[citizenofvirginity]

Mercedes E class are used for cabs?!

[jjlwis]

why the fuck are the taxi's going backward? am i going crazy?

[amb5991]

@jjlwis I was wondering the same thing.. but i didnt want to seem stuipid..

[spaceghetto]

it's sure nice to see such industrious fleas, but my lx5 could blow any mere nikon out of the water... so profoundly in fact that there'd be nothing but a big black abyss ripped straight through the globe and out the other side... with nothing but the sun moon & stars looking back in gaping awe.

[LeonardoSasuke]

@spaceghetto I'm so sorry that you haven't experienced the wonders of the D7000. I will make a non-profit foundation to get high quality cameras to people who haven't owned one yet, like you.

[spaceghetto]

@LeonardoSasuke i don't believe i'd be able to handle any more technological sophistication than what my lx5 offers-- which i've lately determined equates to borderline limitless creative capabilities. you should see some of my cat photography. and plus my lx5 is at least ten times as handsome to behold, towering like a golden Adonis over the d7000. really you'd think with the exorbitant prices they charge nikon'd be willing to hire somebody with at least half a clue for styling.

[LeonardoSasuke]

@spaceghetto The lx5 is a pretty good camera... if you want a compact point and shoot. But for better pictures the D7000 is the way to go. Nuff' said.

[spaceghetto]

@LeonardoSasuke honestly, my H4D-40 blows the both of them to nanoscopic shreds... but in the end one either has photographic talent or one doesn't; it doesn't mean shit how much of the dwindling almighty dollar you've spent in the process of acquiring your tool if you're deaf, dumb and blind to the beauty in sorrow of the real.

[FenchelJanisch]

New blog about filming, editing and DSLR video:

fenchel-janisch[dot]com

[Rayner1234]

@FenchelJanisch Does prolong video recording , cause any extra wear on the image sensor ??

[PRC1972]

ISO 1600 is like a drop in the friggin bucket for this camera haha

[LomoMop]

great under low light :D

[demonicBerith]

Absolutely stunning. No point in paying 6000 dollars more for a camera that's barely going to make the slightest difference like the canon 7D

[denid1]

the quality is amazing!!!

[aykutb111]

ISO doesn't seem to change automatically unlike D90, it suck so much..You can't do anything when ISO is changing all the time! You can't even use your one of a kind lenses in optimum performance..Does video lines still move when you move the camera fast horizontally?

[FenchelJanisch]

@aykutb111

Check out our rolling shutter tests on our channel...

[WomanAbuser]

@aykutb111 You can lock it with one touch! Go try it. on my d5000 I press the hold button and locks it!

[cnnfllsht]

@aykutb111 Yes, this shit is still alive. Canon 5D, 7D Nikon D7000. All they have it. and do u see strange colores on the car's radiator cell. It's killing me.

[AllanGeeRusky]

@FenchelJanisch Where is the world do they have Mercedes Benz taxi? And also what would you rate the video capabilities of the D7000 and the overall experience of the D7000?

[FenchelJanisch]

@AllanGeeRusky

In Germany...

Just check out our test between the two cameras on our channel.

[AllanGeeRusky]

@FenchelJanisch I don't know German. LOL. Did you but the focus on manual for the documentary?

[FenchelJanisch]

@AllanGeeRusky

Manual focus.

[AllanGeeRusky]

@FenchelJanisch Overall, do you like the d7000? Anything you don't like?

[solangepolegar]

@AllanGeeRusky in Portugal. it's an European thing, called availability. We don't have Chevys, though ;) and... drumroll... our trash trucks are also Mercedes...

[JzAeroo]

@AllanGeeRusky Germany and the Netherlands are the countries that uses Mercedes Benz as taxi. Mostly the E200CDI, some of them are S-classes, 5 series, 7 series and Chrysler 300C's.

[adamswelz]

ii) Also a test of Nikon D7000 at 25fps 720 vs Canon 60D at 25 fps 1080 -- the Nikon does not do 25fps at 1080 and I would like to use this frame rate for broadcast -- was wondering how the Nikon 720 compared to the Canon 60D 1080, because your earlier Nikon D7000 vs Canon 60D showed the Nikon to be a clear winner, but perhaps you had a bad lens on the Canon?

[adamswelz]

These vids are really useful!

i) Could we please have a test of the D7000 in 720p mode vs 1080p mode at same frame rate -- split screen, with sharp prime lens like 50mm f1.8 stopped down to prime aperture?

[viermans]

I'm curious wether the D7000 will hold in a club or concert hall. The artificial light there was a pain for the D90. Flickering video was the result...

[chunt06]

its the AF on or its manual?

[FenchelJanisch]

@chunt06

Manual focus.

[FenchelJanisch]

@WinstonPhavivongkorn

Yes you can!

[SnapShotEvans]

can u see if it works

[SnapShotEvans]

can the video go to windows movie maker

[FenchelJanisch]

@SnapShotEvans

Yes, it should work...

[curtismichael14]

@SnapShotEvans screw that dude,get adobe

[dimalozz]

What aperture number it was there? What optics?

[MysticMaven]

Goddammit Youtube! All I want to do is watch a fucking video on my 15Mb connection without it goddamn stopping every 3 seconds to buffer.

[hamzaj88]

@MysticMaven haha gosh! pause it and let it buffer.. whats the hurry :p

[zemozzer]

@MysticMaven you most likely have a virus. your 'puter is probably one of those spam-spewing zombies and 99.3% of your connectivity is being eaten up in effect. you better do something about that already.

[TheRealEmskiHelp]

@MysticMaven YouTube is used by nearly the whole world. It can't stand to push out huge speeds anymore, as the video hosting would cost a bomb!

[powerbead]

@MysticMaven I don't think it's youtuve, it's most likely your ISP

[mikemusica]

@MysticMaven That has NOTHING to do with Youtube, but everything to do with your connection speed.

[carbonandchemicals]

@mikemusica Actually it really does. YouTube limits how fast it streams the videos to browsing users, especially depending on traffic. I have a 50 Mb/s connection over solid fiber optic lines (FiOS), a gigabit N router, and videos sometimes still take forever to load on YouTube.

[NixxerJixxerWixxer]

Dude, can somebody test the JELLO effect on this thing? The D90 was pretty awful

[FenchelJanisch]

@NixxerJixxerWixxer

There is a rolling shutter test video in our channel!

[moonboots69]

24fps is not enough... Canon reign supreme here...

[demonicBerith]

@moonboots69 Screw canon.You get the same quality for a cheaper price, plus NiKons are more stunning to look at. Canons look like shitty toys, and they are.

[joysweetcandy10]

@demonicBerith hahah my friends are making me jealous about their canon. they always think theirs are better. I feel bad sometimes but i don't say anything cuz I'm just that satisfied. I love me nikon d5000. gotta love what i can only afford. hopefully i'll be able to upgrade soon... :/

[mrparpukari]

why does the video looks choppy?

[bigluttz]

to all the people that dont know anything about film canon have been doing video for like 25+ years nikon for like 3 so nikon been fine even with there first camera the d90 so dont think nikon put out crap they dont. get what works for you you like canon great you like nikon great but just understand nikon is only gonna get better and just wait for the semi pro and pro DSLR's to come out. people was quick to talk crap about the d90. first DSLR to do video plus nikons first ever video device ..

[Kleptomanuel]

How is the rolling shutter jello effect when using the camera hand-held?

[FenchelJanisch]

@Kleptomanuel

A rolling shutter video is on our channel!

[Leo012345]

It's just mind blowing that we are able to achieve this footage for under $1.5K.

[FenchelJanisch]

@Leo012345

Yes. If you think a few years back nobody thought that such a thing could happen...

[smasila]

@Leo012345 The hacked Panasonic GH1 can destroy all these DSLR's vid footage. GH2 is a level above the hack GH1.

[Matthewpiano]

Wow - excellent footage and image quality. Which lens did you use?

[FenchelJanisch]

@Matthewpiano

Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 18-200mm

[aradilon]

wow thats some clean footage

[FenchelJanisch]

@philippewuestenbergs

No problem...

[YouFirstEye]

How well does the auto focus in video mode?

[FenchelJanisch]

@YouFirstEye

The auto focus isn't bad but everything I shot was done manually.

[FenchelJanisch]

@philippewuestenbergs

The white balance is more yellowish on purpose!

Lens: Nikon AF-S DX Nikkor 18-200mm

Shutter: 60

Aperture: f/5,6

[rtandona]

@FenchelJanisch What iso did you shoot this at? It looks really nice. 24fps or 30fps?

thanks!

[FenchelJanisch]

@rtandona

ISO 1600

24 fps

[wurstspam]

@FenchelJanisch

Shutter of 1/60th in a country with 50hz power supply?

[1001kadr]

Отличное качество. Для дома будет супер.

[FenchelJanisch]

@1001kadr

Thanks!

[1001kadr]

Отличное качество. Для дома будет супер.

[rockjano]

Hmmm low light is definitely better here than on my sony handycam

[FenchelJanisch]

@MacFan1992

Yes,

probably on sunday...

[MacFan1992]

@FenchelJanisch

Thanks. Does the video look any better out of the camera than here on youtube? (compression)

cheers,

[FenchelJanisch]

@MacFan1992

Of course the quality isn't that good on YouTube...

The original video looks better!
