I don't think this is bad at all, but meh... I ain't recording no bouncy cars, I'm recording mostly videos where the camera is standing still, while the action takes place inside the current camera view :) And for that use it's more than good enough.
Yeah, it is a limitation, but my point was that it's not specific to the D5000. If you want to shoot action scenes, buy a cheap camcorder. Complaining about the video mode is like buying buying a Ferrari, and complaining about the lack of seating for your extended family. If you want to take good photos with some sporadic, simple panning shots, the D5000 is fine. If you want to shoot video an take a still every one in a while, look for an upper-end camcorder.
@guitarman63mm Well, yeah. I were expecting a bit more bang for the buck; especially since you are bound to spend a (little) fortune for prosumer/professional lenses.
People looking for information regarding the video performance of the D5000 should see how it performs in sub par conditions.
One of these days I am going to hook my D5000 up on a 720p capable device and see if I can get the monitor signal routed to a HDMI capture device to bypass the lossy AVCHD codec.
It seems to show your inability as a videographer. It's manual focus, dude. You know, that thing on the lens you turn counter clockwise/clockwise to focus. Plus it should be set to focus at infinity, lower f stop number. Pump up the ISO speed too.

This is not a limitation...this is called 'rolling shutter'. It happens in all cameras utilizing a CMOS sensor.

@guitarman63mm Therefore it does not limit you shooting "action" scenes?
Hell yeah it does...

Simple stuff, folks.

I'd love to see you doing better holding the cam with one hand, manually focussing with the other while you get tossed around :)

The footage shows that under certain circumstances it appears to be "vertically compressed" where it is supposed to be blurry.

I don't understand how this is a "Limitation". All you filmed was footage of a bumpy road. This doesn't show anything.
