Nikon D5000 Test Shoot

[ChicaqooMami]

I want that camera!

[valschuck61]

where did you shoot this, i gotta feeling i know the place :)

[RPST10]

The camera play's a big part in making great videos , films and pictures but the skill and expertise of user plays a bigger part.

[MerlinaRodas]

fascinating video quality, does anyone know if there's auto-focus when it's on video mode?

[goudacheese33536]

@MerlinaRodas Nope, you have to manual focus it -.- But still, gots to love the Nikon D5000 <3

[BubbleProductions11]

Awesome! I really want this one, but what lens are u using so I know I can get it for the future:)

[CeliaLilyMares]

Cool! NOW i know what the D5000 can do! THANKS for the great vid!

[ChristinaEstelle]

You probably get asked this alot but, what edditing software do you use?

I have a Nikon D5000, and when the video is on high quality/definition it locks up my movie maker.

[HearAndSayChannel]

@ChristinaEstelle heya. I use fcp. apples software. great stuff. Try to upgrade if you can : )

Cheers D.

[AlansVlogs]

This is very nice indeed, Video quality is superb. Do you recommend this camera for making films on? I have a small budget of around £600 - £700 and I'm looking into a lot of DSLR cameras. Cheers,

Alan

[twistoffate01]

how did u get the video quality so clean...i have a d5000 and my quality is grainy and i dont know why what lens should i be shooting with?

[andreadastoli]

i can't beliveeee!!! it's incredibleee i wantt!!

[juxnan]

good job man one question , how do you set your cam to get the colors like a 35mm film , i had a nikon d5000 and Im trying to get similar effects but I cant , I shoot my vid in M mode , sometimes in auto, but I dont get the colors like your vid! some help please :)

[XxLyricsGuuurlxX]

How much was it? and how much where the lenses?

[ToKyMOO]

Nice quality :) Whats the background music called?

[NDirishboy26]

i have this camera..but im kind of new to shooting video..how do u manual focus and use that exposure lock while shooting video

[hotstuff37465]

hey i enjoyed this vid :) ihave this camera as well, still learning how to do the focusing with live view! but i was wondering if you knew what that song was called its beautiful

[kauxkaux]

(Newbie alert) If you want to shoot video on a wedding or something. Is there a way to set the camera so that everythin is in focus? that way you dont have to deal with manual focus, with the risk of messing up, but you still can do special shoots focusing manually.

[savagecabage]

the drums are ruining it for me sorry

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

YEAH 30,000! ... how bout 50,000? or do i have to make another one?

[helloimelliott]

0.52 is a beast of a shot

[chanaez]

does it have auto focus in video mode ? and in photo too

[MegaGameGeek]

@chanaez of course in foto mode, but not shore in video mode.

[sirajrizvi]

I like what you did with your format. It has nice black strip at the edges. Very professional.

[saggurl7]

@ serhio ....don't call people liars....if u don't believe he didn't shoot it with a nikon get over yourself and take your negativity somewhere else....just because you can't accomplish things you wish you could doesn't give you the right to diss other people's work...grow up...geez

[saggurl7]

ahaha i know shoot more with my evo 4g than with my new camera....but i dont know what exposure lock is but can u recommend me any how to videos or books that will help me with the photography terminology or just what i can do with my camera...ive been looking everywhere with no luck....

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

18-55 nikor

[3carson3]

@DigbyHoganFilm89 how do you get such stable videos? I assume its not handheld?

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

@3carson3 hay mate. yep all hand held. i may have been resting against something but nothing but my hands and eyes were used to make this. The lens has quite good VR (Vibration Reducition) so that was probably on my side.

Happy shooting

[83turbo280zx]

What lens were you using?

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

@83turbo280zx 18-55mm

[saggurl7]

hey amazing video....i just got this camera but I have no clue how to use it...any suggestions?

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

@saggurl7 lol , just shoot the hell out of it. use manual focus and exposure lock.

[joetylerdale]

@DigbyHoganFilm89 Great advice!

[justynasmile]

amazing!

[itsbeiko]

wish it was in 720p quality

[RobMorganVideos]

So Beautiful!!!

I think I need to take mine outside more often.

[UrbanFlyTV]

[serhio22]

I DONT BELIVE THAT IT IS NIKON D5000 you guys usesomething else... that guality can be only on canon mark 2 or something like this.. its about all your videos.. why uoy are such a lyers?

[benwilliamroach]

[benwilliamroach]

@serhio22 You make me lol. Link me up with your comparison videos then because you clearly sound like you own both, you dead-set champion, you.

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

@serhio22 ... narh man nikon d 5000.

they all shoot like a 35mm camera. just cause the dof is so shallow they can look classy if you use it to your advantage. dont call me a lyer just cause where good at what we do.

D

[SexualToasTi]

Awesoem video dude, the music goes really well with it . . . check out a video I made thats quite similar.

[Gatokuriboh]

i want this cam T_T

[kamshaft83]

ur video is great, it gave me ideas for the video i created. i just started photography as a hobby. used to only take bout 3 photos where ever i went, family party, park, etc. but now im taking like 200 pics everytime i go somewhere. i even take this thing into restraunts to use the "food" setting. yes ppl theres a food setting, itll make spam look like gold! well not but makes any food look really good. it has preset functions for just about every scene. thanks

[TickTockTickify]

When I tried uploading a video from my d5000 the quality came up really poor as if shot by a camera phone...How did you upload your video with its originality?

[jasonism123]

I like this camera, but can it take videos more than 5 minutes?

[PzSniper]

WOW can't wait for my D5000

[RonzMickle]

So GlAD IM PURCHISING THIS CAMERA

[queenieypy]

nice shooting!! =)

[redorgreenprod]

Did you stabilize this video? If not, you're like extremely stable, cuz the other videos i've watched that were filmed with this camera are really jittery!

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

14,000 - go the youtube community! can we do 20,000?

[madonna39100]

[RubenCraninx]

Do you need an Extreme III SD-card to make movies???

[FlamesandGuns]

stunning. both the camera, the angles, and the content.

[ajkusia]

verry nice . ;}

[xSkessax]

Gosh, I really like this video!

[bmlvr786]

55 - 200mm/4-5.6G IF-ED or 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED? I know you're like "WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?" but I'm just wondering because I wanna buy one of those for my D5000 but I'm not sure which one. :'D

[SonicaGemini1300]

I love this video. the nikon d5000 is truly amazing!

[trialondadeck]

were you manuel foucasing or auto

[muhi94]

@trialondadeck looks like manual, but im not sure

[steve702]

Cheap.... Maybe to judt tolook at. Lol. Nice vid tho. I'm hopeing to get one soon. : >)

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

woot 10,000!

thanx guys

[AyuLoveGackt]

nice job

I love my nikon <33

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

umm good question which i think if you look down a few comment pages youll see the answer. im not sure thou. pretty lazy cool track never the less cheers for the comment.

[featuringnathan]

Where's this music from?

& This video is awesome :)

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

@featuringnathan The song is Asleep by The Album Leaf. found it. lucky man. have a good one

[featuringnathan]

@DigbyHoganFilm89 Thanks :D It's so peaceful :)

[MrLarrend]

@DigbyHoganFilm89: is the d5000 is weather proof? and has an anti-shake feature? im planning to buy one. is Nikon 70-300mm f4.5-5.6 AF-S VR IF ED Lens has its own autofocus function? kind regards. :)

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

@MrLarrend Ha!.

maybe you should have emailed nikon. Butttt. umm its not water proof id thats what your asking but however sunshine wont hurt it. wind isnt too bad either ; ).

Too the second question most of the nikon lenses that have VR will have there own auto focus function but it may pay you to type it into google or make a phone call to get the correct information

[ricanladpro]

@ Octavian88mtl The song is Asleep by The Album Leaf

[Octavian88mtl]

What is the music in the background? Can someone tell me?

[grated801]

how do you blur one point to another like this on the d5000 on live recording??? cant figure it out?maybe my settin is wrong?wrong mode???

[balala00]

@grated801 manual focus the lens

[bluntman007]

He or she is using manual focus; the only one with video. d5000 and d90 do not have auto focus with video mode.

[Kentiapalme]

how did you get the 21:9 film-look?

[CherryCherryBoomRock]

probably used sony vegas

[Kentiapalme]

how much does it cost?

[CherryCherryBoomRock]

well i just downloaded sony vegas for free just watch a youtube video and it will show you or if you want to pay it's about $600.00 yikes

[Kentiapalme]

I've downloaded the lite version. But it doesn't have included all the features I need :(

and it also goes just for 31 days...

[CherryCherryBoomRock]

get sony vegas pro 9 and download a keygen from a video

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

final cut pro

[retronadya]

That was wonderfully shot! I'm considering of buying one myself after using a few years in the D100. Some people recommended me the D90 though~ decisions, decisions.

[guitarman63mm]

I'm telling you, from personal experience, the D90 will get you much further. I seldom use my d5000's video because of the rolling shutter effect, but mostly it boils down to the internal AF motor in the d90. The d5000 doesn't have one. It makes lens purchases MUCH more expensive if you want AF on the d5000, because they need to have an internal motor in the lens itself. Just my two cents.

[sandiegomarino]

congrats, best d5000 video yet

[arsukhi]

thanx for video post ...it made my mind clear to go about buying this camera really soon....i have no doubts about the photography but video quality is wht i needed most now...seeing shake in the videos and mono sound caputuring i started looking for canon cameras......but after seeing this great video you shot it really amazed me......from my side in medium range N D5000 is perfecto....

[luckyfiasco]

very nice video. how long can you film on it?

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

5 minute intervels. and i thinking like 45 min on an 8G card. but i dont know of many 5 minute single shots? lol cheers

[graphicd92]

this is amazing. are the pictures this camera takes as good as the video, like how is the contrast

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

the pictures are just as good if not better keeping in mind this camera is really meant for phot taking

[Jaeqo]

d5000 definitely

[ArtistryOfUno]

name of song?

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

not sure, found it on my itunes froman old friend. it just had a track number. i know its good though hey. its goes perfectly with some many visuals

[titoindo]

wow so nice.i just bought a D5000 :D! how did u manage to change the focus from the front wall to back wall ? please teach me thanks (on 10'sec-14sec)

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

hey dude, thankyou.

its just a manual focus pull. on the left side of your lense will be a switch that says A or M switch it to "M" and it will allow you to manually move your focus ring. When your recording

just play between the 2 focus points and in my case it was the back wall to the front wall.

can i help with anything else?

cheers : )

[titoindo]

wow thanks digbyhogan..its so simple while i'm looking for something in the menu..

but is there somehow in manual focus that indicate to us , when the adjustment focus in correct?

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

hey dude. sorry for the late reply. the only answer i have for that is not really in video mode with the d5000 however if you are shooting something planned take some quick measurements from the base of your lense to the subject and match those distances up to that of the corresponding number/s on your focus ring, most likely in ft'. if you dont want to take distances or dont have the right equipment you can as an easy way out switch the focus to auto for a moment and back into photo mode.

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

zoom in as tight as your lense will allow and hold the button that allows you to take pictures down half way. It will get the exact focus needed for that point and all you need to do is check what number/focal length it has moved to on the focus ring then switch back to manual and video mode and now your know what the perfect focus for your subject will be : if your just shooting random

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

unpredictable it just comes with practice and teaching your eye what correct focus looks like on the LCD (as small and hard as that may seem) enjoy happy shooting, let me know how you go

[emmiranda]

And the reviewers keep saying the HD Video in DSLR is just a gimmick. Clearly they are photographers, not movie directors.

Good job on this video, they also complain that it has mono sound and you can't use the camera as a substitute of a camcorder... haha. Is a nice plus to have HD Video and the good videos have sound added to it, you just showed it. Good video, I'll getting this in a couple of weeks. You should get 35mm f1.8 DX =). I'll get that and 18-200mm!!

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

hey, agree 100% thanx for the complaments.

and i meant it took me 1 hr to shoot and a few to cut together.

and yer the only people who are bagging (paying out) the product are the photographers. there just jealous they cant buy a video camera that takes stills ... oh wait they can! mmm and for the time being the 2000$ for that lens can stay in my pocket. still cool.

have fun with your purchase, keep me filled in, post me a vid. would love to see what you do with it.

digby.

[joshcapulet]

VISIONARY

[PhoXiezzle]

Great video and music!

I've got one too!  Love this camera!

cheers!

[PlugInPrius]

I'm buying this camera because I like the Titl and Swivel- Articulating LCD screen. It's also the only digital camera made to date that mounts swivel LCD screen on the rear bottom of the camera rather than mounting it on the left side like all the Olympus E- Series Cameras do. And Canon doesn't even make a Tilt and swivel LCD, What's with that? I've been saving my money and I'll be buying this camera this week with the awesome 18mm-200mm VR(vibration reduction)lens. Lens is about $800. Ouch.

[Earz62801]

Next time you shoot video with the d5000 make sure you press AE LOCK aka exposure lock that will get rid of the light flickering aka constant exposure change in the video. Also to reduce the jello effect make you have VR turned off if using a vr lens

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

hey, yeah thanx. it was really just a muck around. it wasnt bothing me to much so i wasnt taken to the extra effort. however When i turned off VR in video mode i preferred the "jello" effect too the "shake" esspecially at 200mm. do you have 1? how do you prefer VR when shooting?

cheers

[nil1230]

camera shake,not good.

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

yeah, i noticed that too but what i had to weigh up was (just so you know im more into the world of digital video and film than photography) i could get the 5D MK11 with the equilvent lens's which would set me back 7- 8k or i could get a red rock cine lens adaptor or Letus who do the same for one of the prosumer cameras 7 - 8 k after lens's and adaptor (not including prosumer camera like V1P or a Z1P)

...

[DigbyHoganFilm89]

...

orrrrrr i could pay $1800 for a twin lens kit that does 720p video with standard nikon lens's and im happy with its down falls cause you get what you pay for but on the bright side its a bloody good little camera and if i may say so my self taking into account everything i just said i think the footage is O.K.

cheers

[lorimoni]

great camera!!!
