Nikon D5000 Video Sample

[BubbleProductions11]

WTF I CAN'T EVEN SEE THE VIDEO QUALITY!!

[MattFerroFilms]

lol whats with your exposure and shutter speed? It looks like you just unpackaged it and turned it on without fixing it to make it look more gloriously awesome.

[siddiqui16]

why cant you relax man... you were constantly moving...

i couldn't observe the video quality...

[Acepryus]

@siddiqui16 I guess I was a little fidgety. I had just unboxed it and was eager to try the video function. I guess this makes it a decent sample of what it would be like to be caught without a tripod while panning across a screen.

[ubentu]

Now the D7000 offers some beautiful video quality, but you really have to shoot it right to get it right with any video camera

[fretduster03]

i was more interested on your backyard than your camera to be honest.amazing backyard mate.

[TheOfficialSabrina]

Did you zoom at the max in the video? Or you could have zoom more?

[Acepryus]

@TheOfficialSabrina I was at the max zoom for the lens I had on it which was a Nikon 55-200 zoom lens.

[JogBird]

ughh.. unless you have a steadicam, you should walk and shoot

[Acepryus]

@JogBird I agree. I've been looking into getting a spring arm compensated rig to use with my new camera. They're just SOOOO damn expensive.

[MarshmallowBunnyLove]

there was a huge difference when i changed it to 720p !

[cybershot70]

I think the Canon 550d is the better pick if u ask me - but this camera also got a nice quality -

[AshKilamande]

thats a verry nice backyard lol

[gezmark]

is there image warping effect when you move fast of shake digital SLRs during video? i smth like that i most of this dlsr videos

[ScottishMTB]

Great video quality. Remember guy, watch in 720p

[tesk187]

haha there u go

[nictheartist]

The video has turned out ok, check out the option below the video to change resolution! The video mode seems to work best when the camera is held still. To be honest, I prefer the camcorder for "proper" vids, but it's ok for occasional filming, same as with a good compact digicam.

[gotDesign]

the video mode is a plus, if you don't want it, don't use it, or just buy a Nikon D60

[gunznmotorchick]

How do you like the Nikon D5000??... is it worth buying?

[dm2131311]

@gunznmotorchick its definately worth buying, simple and easy to use with great features

[Acepryus]

@gunznmotorchick I have to admit that the only reason I got it was because I was upgrading from my D40 and I thought the video feature would be cool and for what I paid for it, I can't complain. I have to agree with the general consensus that if you want to shoot good video, go with a camera that is meant only for video. Having the video feature on a DSLR is only handy if you're out shooting stills and you come across something you want to film.

[azbor1cua]

Camera is still in VGA resolution for video, he never changed it to HD. lol

[CrazyMrApple]

@azbor1cua hello how to change the VGA resolution to HD??? and whenever i make videos after almost 1 min it say terminating video why is that ??is my camera D5000 faulty or what?? thanks for your help...

[masni92]

@azbor1cua

lol, 720p is HD-...

[nil1230]

Yeah.this looks like its taken from a point and shoot cam.

[KickinSam808]

Canon t1i (500D) is much more better in HD.

[abriboi]

does anyone know if the sound quality of these videos are that great? As in, can you hear voices and such clearly?

[Remediz]

Watch My Nikon D5000 Video TESTS , Thanks

[WolfieRustin]

I think it's smarter to use the features that come with something to save money so that you don't have to buy some MP3 or a Camcorder. Not everyone has parents to buy them things.

I'm not trying to start a flame-war, so please save the embarrassment.

[idleminds1]

then tell nikon not to combine the video with the camera.

[VMItube]

man a dslr with hd video is amazing. what does it hurt to have video capability on an amazing camera? nothing.

[nil1230]

just throw it to the water..

[netook8]

yea, it's the same price. and at this time the T1i is cheaper then the D5000 in some non-USA countries. For example the T1i cheaper then the D5000 in Canada.

The XSI however was priced higher then the D60 last year. So shop around, as Nikon was best in 2008(D3X,D90)) but got owned by canon in 2009(5Dmk2, T1i)

[musicbybrendan]

lol maybe exposure lock and a tripod might help to show it's real capabilties.

[BuildingCastlesMusic]

Agreed. This sample is a joke.

[ScottLikesDinosaurs]

I WANT YOUR BACKYARD. Omfg.

[Alexvideoclip]

Best video of the year, do you work for Hollywood studios ?

[jasperians]

got one this weekend. super awesome

[Xaeron187]

At first look, I thought "damn, that's crappy quality!" then I noticed the sharper edges closer to the camera, in the foreground. And I realized it was the manual focus that it has in video mode :D

getting one of those this weekend, are you happy with it?

[Acepryus]

@Xaeron187 I certainly like it, though I rarely shot video with it because of the fact that you have to manual focus while you're shooting and unless you have VERY good eyes, you can't really tell if it's in focus or not just by looking at the screen.

[hankx32]

can we see more of your beautiful backyard? 8)

[nastynate1420]

sweet back yard!!!!

[pfranks44]

ooh. pretty bad rolling shutter... i want this camera and i was stoked about the video function, but this doesn't look so hot.

[lottochamp]

I don't know why people keep comparing this Camera to a $3,500+ 3 CCD Video Camera, like the Canon XH A1? The quality is awful and unless you want a simple DOF video shot, but good luck keeping the moving subject in focus. The video function, as a replacement to a high end Camcorder is just plain stupid! Plus it records mono sound, oh this is cool? Then you need to record onto an external recorder, to edit with any video. Summed Up: Good in low light, good DOF simple shots and..well thats all.

[swetrich]

this is a damn nice camera no matter how bad the video is thats just an extra and it looks good with color correction it could look waay better

[raptorclans]

what a nice backyard dude... but if it were me i'd be scared stiff of dropping the cam into the sea.

looks like the rolling shutter thingy is pretty obvious... but i'm still targeting this cam =)

[bickerlicker]

so do you like your nikon d5000?

[chingvang559]

damm nice ass backyard
