How to zoom in with Nikon d 800 movie mode?

Q. Hi, I would deeply appreciate if someone could help me. I'm shooting a documentary with Nikon D800 but I can't seem to make a zoom in while I'm filming, or zoom to get extreme close ups.
I would deeply appreciate the help :)
Thanks :)

A. Extreme close ups will require you to use a macro lens like the 105 mm f/2.8 so you can maintain some distance from the subject

Zooming is rarely used when shooting video. The zoom lens is used to crop the frame without needed to move the camera, rarely anything else

When you see a video that is full of "zooms" it shows that the director is not an experienced video shooter.

Think of a zoom in the script as an exclamation point. After while , too many !!!!!!!! get boring and you lose your audience.

Take a look at this video shot using an older Nikon D7000. After viewing it with the sound off, look at your video script again and try to remove all but one or two zooms.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMbBKukJzBk

While the director of this video used three zoom lenses and one prime, you will not see any zooming going on (but for a very short few seconds at the end)

Most of the camera movements are either dolly's, pans, jib shots and a couple aerial shots using a small remote controlled helicopter.

EDIT: What accessories do you have? Do you have a Loupe similar to this?

Here are some more links to the kinds of accessories you will eventually want if you intend to shoot video using a dSLR

i have canon t1i. I confused to upgrade my camera to one of 5D markiii or nikon D800. help me please?

Q. i have this lenses canon 85 f1.8, canon 15- 85mm f3.5-5.6, canon18-55 , canon 55-250. Is Nikon d800 better than canon 5d markiii? if its better is it that much to i change all of this.

A. Given that you really don't have much investment in lenses, I think you could upgrade to either camera.

There isn't a tremendous difference between the two in terms of image quality. Both are going to produce excellent images that will blow up easily to 40X60 prints. I would try both of them and see which one feels better in your hand and has more intuitive controls.

I need some advice on what software I should buy for editing digital photographs?

Q. I am not a professional; I have a Nikon D800 and shoot Raw. I don't shoot hundreds of pictures at a time. Cost is not particularly an issue, but dont want to waste money either. Thanks

A. Photoshop Elements does 90% of what full blown Photoshop CS6 does & will probably do all you'll ever need. Costs less than £100.

Where it is cheaper to buy Nikon D800 at Bangkok or Abu Dhabi airport?

Q. Will be in Bangkok via Abu Dhabi airports this summer and wanted to buy Nikon D800. I on the way we will have a stop over in Abu Dhabi, I am not sure whether I should buy the camera there or wait until we get to Bangkok.

A. Be aware that when you return to your country of origin you may end up having to pay import taxes on your new purchase. This will probably mean you end up paying more than you would in your country of origin, and don't even have the peace of mind of having a warranty that you can use at home!

Is this website trustworthy to buy Nikon D800 SLR Camera?

Q. Hi there I was planning on buying Nikon D800 SLR Camera for photo studio in this website: http://www.oemdeal.com/ Is this website trustworthy to buy products? Because it has greats discounts and its kind of awkward.. Or has anyone purchased any product from this website? please answer ASAP. It's for a birthday gift for this upcoming April. Thank You.

A. if you are unsure then I would say that you should say to yourself no it isn't

trustworthy sites are ones that have the safety shield dated on them.

Either go to the store or shop with amazon, ebay, or Target. good luck

Will the price of the Nikon D7000 come down soon with newer generation cameras coming out?

Q. Should I stop waiting for the price of the Nikon D7000 to come down? I've seen that Nikon will be offering the Nikon D800 for retail sale soon. Does that mean there will also be a Nikon D8000 available soon, and will the availability of any newer generation Nikon cause the D7000 to be reduced in price?

A. If you look on the Nikon Website, you will see that the D90 that was replaced by the D7000 was reduced about $300, yet is still being sold.

What this may tell you is that when the new replacement for the D7000 is eventually released, a similar discount may be available.

However, if you need or want a D7000, waiting around for that to happen may not be a good idea.

The D80 was replaced two years later by the D90 and another two years elapsed before the D7000 became available. What that means is that it may be that the replacement for the D7000 may not be showing up until about the end of the year or beginning of 2013.

As dSLR's become more and more sophisticated, the time between new updates has become longer and longer. It could be, that we will not be seeing many changes in the + $1,000 cameras for as long as three years. Just remember, the Nikon D3 is just now being replaced by the D4, 4 years after its introduction.

A. lens last forever. but if you see something that d800 has in improving your image quality, that its worth going camera rather than lens.

i have canon t1i. I confused to upgrade my camera to one of 5D markiii or nikon D800. help me please?

Q. i have this lenses canon 85 f1.8, canon 15- 85mm f3.5-5.6, canon18-55 , canon 55-250. Is Nikon d800 better than canon 5d markiii? if its better is it that much to i change all of this.

A. Given that you really don't have much investment in lenses, I think you could upgrade to either camera.

There isn't a tremendous difference between the two in terms of image quality. Both are going to produce excellent images that will blow up easily to 40X60 prints. I would try both of them and see which one feels better in your hand and has more intuitive controls.

I need some advice on what software I should buy for editing digital photographs?

Q. I am not a professional; I have a Nikon D800 and shoot Raw. I don't shoot hundreds of pictures at a time. Cost is not particularly an issue, but dont want to waste money either. Thanks

A. Photoshop Elements does 90% of what full blown Photoshop CS6 does & will probably do all you'll ever need. Costs less than £100.

What camera should I buy Nikon D800 or Canon 5D mark III?

Q. I need to buy a new camera, I want a work horse. But I can't decide between these two cameras. I'm a Nikon fan-boy at heart, but the mark III is one helluva camera. I already possess a number of lenses for Nikon and Canon so that's not an issue. Which would you pick and why?

A. Hang on for a couple of months I've got a feeling Canon is about to announce a new fullframe soon. Rumor? No, its just that my dealer has dropped the price of the 5DM3 down to $2858 and its not even Xmas, something is afoot.

P.S. I don't normally respond to fools but whoever gave the thumbs down, put up or shut up!

which DSLR camera is better and more professional than others for Digital movie making, not for photography?

Q. CANON DSLR EOS 5D Mark iii or NIKON D800 or maybe SONY XDCAM EX3 ???

A. I'm a wedding photographer, and I work closely with a lot of videographers as part of my job.

The *vast* majority are using Canon equipment, as it currently leads the way, hands down, in video DSLR kit. Most of them are using 60D or T3i bodies due to their size, weight, and low cost. Both bodies can take advantage of the full range of Canon lenses, giving endless potential (the shot is in the lens, not the body).

A t3i with a couple of fast prime lenses (f/2.8 or wider) will allow you to produce stunning results without a budget ending with 4 zeros! A 60D with the same lenses will produce the same results but cost more.

the 5D MIII, while being an event photographers dream, isn't going to offer you a whole lot more in the video area than the others, unless you're in the movie industry and need to shoot in near darkness. Is it worth the extra $3000 over the T3i to you? That entirely depends on how advanced a film maker you are already - if you're maxing out the capabilities of traditional movie cameras (not 'video cameras' - pro stuff) then maybe - that's down to you to decide.

Hope that helps.

Can Nikon D800 use the old Nikon SB-800 flash?

Q. I have the old Nikon SB-800 flash, and I am intending to get the new Nikon D800. Do not want to spend money on the latest SB-910. Please help.

A. Any body made after the D100 can use any current (ittl) flash. So on a D800 you could use the sb-400, 600, 700, 800 and 910 as well as the ring flash setups.

Will the price of the Nikon D7000 come down soon with newer generation cameras coming out?

Q. Should I stop waiting for the price of the Nikon D7000 to come down? I've seen that Nikon will be offering the Nikon D800 for retail sale soon. Does that mean there will also be a Nikon D8000 available soon, and will the availability of any newer generation Nikon cause the D7000 to be reduced in price?

A. If you look on the Nikon Website, you will see that the D90 that was replaced by the D7000 was reduced about $300, yet is still being sold.

What this may tell you is that when the new replacement for the D7000 is eventually released, a similar discount may be available.

However, if you need or want a D7000, waiting around for that to happen may not be a good idea.

The D80 was replaced two years later by the D90 and another two years elapsed before the D7000 became available. What that means is that it may be that the replacement for the D7000 may not be showing up until about the end of the year or beginning of 2013.

As dSLR's become more and more sophisticated, the time between new updates has become longer and longer. It could be, that we will not be seeing many changes in the + $1,000 cameras for as long as three years. Just remember, the Nikon D3 is just now being replaced by the D4, 4 years after its introduction.

How do i turn on AF51 on a Nikon D800?

How to zoom in with Nikon d 800 movie mode?

Q. Hi, I would deeply appreciate if someone could help me. I'm shooting a documentary with Nikon D800 but I can't seem to make a zoom in while I'm filming, or zoom to get extreme close ups.
I would deeply appreciate the help :)
Thanks :)

A. Extreme close ups will require you to use a macro lens like the 105 mm f/2.8 so you can maintain some distance from the subject

Zooming is rarely used when shooting video. The zoom lens is used to crop the frame without needed to move the camera, rarely anything else

When you see a video that is full of "zooms" it shows that the director is not an experienced video shooter.

Think of a zoom in the script as an exclamation point. After while , too many !!!!!!!! get boring and you lose your audience.

Take a look at this video shot using an older Nikon D7000. After viewing it with the sound off, look at your video script again and try to remove all but one or two zooms.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMbBKukJzBk

While the director of this video used three zoom lenses and one prime, you will not see any zooming going on (but for a very short few seconds at the end)

Most of the camera movements are either dolly's, pans, jib shots and a couple aerial shots using a small remote controlled helicopter.

EDIT: What accessories do you have? Do you have a Loupe similar to this?

Here are some more links to the kinds of accessories you will eventually want if you intend to shoot video using a dSLR

Q. Will be in Bangkok via Abu Dhabi airports this summer and wanted to buy Nikon D800. I on the way we will have a stop over in Abu Dhabi, I am not sure whether I should buy the camera there or wait until we get to Bangkok.

A. Be aware that when you return to your country of origin you may end up having to pay import taxes on your new purchase. This will probably mean you end up paying more than you would in your country of origin, and don't even have the peace of mind of having a warranty that you can use at home!

Is this website trustworthy to buy Nikon D800 SLR Camera?

Q. Hi there I was planning on buying Nikon D800 SLR Camera for photo studio in this website: http://www.oemdeal.com/ Is this website trustworthy to buy products?

How do i turn on AF51 on a Nikon D800?

Q. My father was wondering how to turn on the AF51 (51points or something) on the Nikon D800. I have no clue of what he is talking about because I don't know anything about cameras lol. So I was hoping that someone can help me out here with it. Thanks!!

A. Press the AF button (button on the M-AF selector switch on the front left by the lens mount) and turn the front command dial, until it comes to D 51 on the top LCD panel.

How to zoom in with Nikon d 800 movie mode?

Q. Hi, I would deeply appreciate if someone could help me. I'm shooting a documentary with Nikon D800 but I can't seem to make a zoom in while I'm filming, or zoom to get extreme close ups.
I would deeply appreciate the help :)
Thanks :)

A. Extreme close ups will require you to use a macro lens like the 105 mm f/2.8 so you can maintain some distance from the subject

Zooming is rarely used when shooting video. The zoom lens is used to crop the frame without needed to move the camera, rarely anything else

When you see a video that is full of "zooms" it shows that the director is not an experienced video shooter.

Think of a zoom in the script as an exclamation point. After while , too many !!!!!!!! get boring and you lose your audience.

Take a look at this video shot using an older Nikon D7000. After viewing it with the sound off, look at your video script again and try to remove all but one or two zooms.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMbBKukJzBk

While the director of this video used three zoom lenses and one prime, you will not see any zooming going on (but for a very short few seconds at the end)

Most of the camera movements are either dolly's, pans, jib shots and a couple aerial shots using a small remote controlled helicopter.

EDIT: What accessories do you have? Do you have a Loupe similar to this?

Here are some more links to the kinds of accessories you will eventually want if you intend to shoot video using a dSLR

i have canon t1i. I confused to upgrade my camera to one of 5D markiii or nikon D800. help me please?

Q. i have this lenses canon 85 f1.8, canon 15- 85mm f3.5-5.6, canon18-55 , canon 55-250. Is Nikon d800 better than canon 5d markiii? if its better is it that much to i change all of this.

A. Given that you really don't have much investment in lenses, I think you could upgrade to either camera.

There isn't a tremendous difference between the two in terms of image quality. Both are going to produce excellent images that will blow up easily to 40X60 prints. I would try both of them and see which one feels better in your hand and has more intuitive controls.

Will the price of the Nikon D7000 come down soon with newer generation cameras coming out?

Q. Should I stop waiting for the price of the Nikon D7000 to come down? I've seen that Nikon will be offering the Nikon D800 for retail sale soon. Does that mean there will also be a Nikon D8000 available soon, and will the availability of any newer generation Nikon cause the D7000 to be reduced in price?

A. If you look on the Nikon Website, you will see that the D90 that was replaced by the D7000 was reduced about $300, yet is still being sold.

What this may tell you is that when the new replacement for the D7000 is eventually released, a similar discount may be available.

However, if you need or want a D7000, waiting around for that to happen may not be a good idea.

The D80 was replaced two years later by the D90 and another two years elapsed before the D7000 became available. What that means is that it may be that the replacement for the D7000 may not be showing up until about the end of the year or beginning of 2013.

As dSLR's become more and more sophisticated, the time between new updates has become longer and longer. It could be, that we will not be seeing many changes in the + $1,000 cameras for as long as three years. Just remember, the Nikon D3 is just now being replaced by the D4, 4 years after its introduction.

I need some advice on what software I should buy for editing digital photographs?

Q. I am not a professional; I have a Nikon D800 and shoot Raw. I don't shoot hundreds of pictures at a time. Cost is not particularly an issue, but dont want to waste money either. Thanks

A. Photoshop Elements does 90% of what full blown Photoshop CS6 does & will probably do all you'll ever need. Costs less than £100.
