there's a video that shows how to use exposure lock here on youtube. i tried pasting the URL, but comment won't show. search this: "D300s: Auto Exposure in Video"

starting from 0:27 it's a really great low light shot.

did you lock the auto exposure?

there doesn't seem to be any artifacts or gain.

very nice.

Is there a way to lock the autoexposure on there? That's my single greatest frustration with the d300s.

What I did was move the exposure retical to the darkest portion of the frame to prevent it from adjusting on me. Works great here but it totally botched a sunset on me due to the shifting light.

@LonSeidman you can change the AE-AF button to lock during video..check out fstoppers on youtube and its under the "how to get better videos with your d300s"
