Hi all,
Probably most of u all already know it by now, I just want to say about D5000 shooting in movie mode.
I think shooting can begin even the scene is not in focus.
Since there’s no auto focus available during shooting, I refer to set the lens to M right from the beginning (before starting the shoot). This way I don’t have to switch to M (on the lens) during mid-way of the shooting, I can concentrate on the framing.
Got a question, are the white balance, active D-lighting & other settings have an impact on the video shootings?
Thanks!
