it is truly amazing that 4 years later, the D850 remains the flagship of DSLR and has far more granularity and settings than just about any other camera on the market - all that with unquestionable ruggedness that designed for the indoors or the outdoors. Years later, I continue to learn more tricks and tips. Thank you for this excellent video. WOW!

It certainly remains at the high water mark of DSLR cameras. There are several mirrorless cameras (from Nikon and others) that exceed the features and capabilities offered by the D850 - camera technology has not stood still. However, as you point out, the depth of the feature set requires some time to discover and master - providing years of photography enjoyment. Thanks very much for your very kind words.

While I have no intention of stepping on your artistic vision and integrity, and it's heartwarming to hear that you have a club, the reality is that many people do use a smaller aperture to achieve the appropriate exposure and there are also many talented artists and photographers who like to use a larger aperture to draw the viewers attention to a specific area of the image. Fuzzy bokeh and a large depth of field will remain popular for some time. Beet salad is so 2013.

Hi Maarten. I keep watching and re-watching this excellent video, as it has helped me to de-mystify video on the D850. One question: is there any point in my shooting 4K video, if I am going to watch it on a 9 year old iMac? What computer / TV hardware spec do I need in order to get the best from 4? I hope this question makes sense. Thanks.

@MaartenHeilbron

5 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the views and the kind words. (I earn about 1/3 cent per view.) Ideally, in order to view 4K content, you'd need a screen capable of 4K. Not having one now would not deter me ... but it will be slow to edit on a 9 year old Mac (they do last a long time don't they?) The other advantage 4K offers is the ability to crop and zoom if your final output is 4K. I'd always suggest that you use the best quality settings available. Storage is relatively cheap, and you didn't buy the D850 to produce less than the best content.

Maarten, I just bought a D850. Previous to this I haven’t been doing photography since 1973 with my Konica film camera. Wow, this 850 is like piloting a space ship compared to my manual Konica! After three weeks, I’ve started getting used to the camera mode and today I thought I’d give the video a try. Much to my surprise. And dismay, I found a lot of strange noises as I panned the camera around, and soon discovered it was noise from my Tamron 24-70 lens. I tried most things but haven’t been able to stop it. If I was doing a video at a group event, say like a wedding, how do you get environmental sounds in general without the constant noise from the lens? Some one said use manual focus but I don’t think that’s workable if someone is walking down an aisle -,I’d have to put my attention exclusively on focusing. Hope you can help.

@MaartenHeilbron

6 жыл бұрын

Do you know if the noise is from focus or aperture adjustments? Or is changing the focal length (zooming) the cause of the noise? Some lenses do make more noises than others - Nikon's AF=P lenses are quieter. In general, those who are serious about audio use an external mic - a shotgun mic mounted on the hot shoe - or use an external recording - everything from a smartphone to an external recorder can be useful - I do have a recent video on this topic: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iaV8zbqIma-5hbg.html Also note that KZread has truncated your question - so not sure if you had more comments. Yes, manual focus and manual exposure (or using AutoISO instead of shutter priority to control exposure) might reduce the unwanted sounds.

Awesome, Martin. Thanks! Just got the D850 to upgrade my D600. Going to try my hand at video at the kid's school play. I have an external mic. What is the difference b/w wide and voice frequency response? What do you recommend? Any recommendations in general for this particular application? I was planning on using my 70-200/2.8 shooting on a tripod from the back of the gym. Might consider DX to get a little more zoom, after watching your vid. Will shoot in 1080p to save some HD space since none of my TV's are 4K anyways.

@MaartenHeilbron

6 жыл бұрын

My pleasure, thanks for your kind words. Wide would be better for music, etc. Voice is for talking only. I'd probably use wide. Sounds like a good plan. If you can do a second audio recording from the school's audio console or from a position closer to the stage, that would likely be better as it sounds like you might be far back and you'll pick up a lot of audience noise.

One area of deficiency with Nikon Manuals is that they do not make clear which mode is best for video. We shoot manual and let the ISO do its thing, but you would never guess that! Being able to pick up the camera and just shoot is key sometimes.

@MaartenHeilbron

6 жыл бұрын

With most recent models, the camera will start recording video in nearly all modes - which is not, in my view, always a good thing. For motion in video to look smooth, the shutter speed should be at or near 1/60, so shutter priority (if the camera doesn't have autoISO) or manual with the shutter at that setting would always be my recommendation. However, that is advice for novices - as you learn more, you may wish to deviate from that setting to achieve specific effects.

Great video...thanks 😀! I have a quick question I am having trouble figuring out...what is the quality difference between MOV and MP4 in the "Movie file type" settings? Thanks!

@MaartenHeilbron

There is no quality difference, it's just the extension, which may make it more easily identified and played on some operating systems or with some editing software.

Thank you Marteen for this amazing tutorial. What is the native ISO on these camera? Thanx.

@MaartenHeilbron

5 жыл бұрын

Thanks, I do appreciate your kind words. I don't think I can provide a clear answer, as Nikon does not. It would always be appreciated, from a video perspective anyway, if "ISO", which is somewhat of an abstract construct for digital cameras, would be expressed in terms of gain - so that 0 gain would be easily seen as the native ISO. And as with other gain measurements in db, each 3 db increase in gain would be roughly equivalent to a stop. So, on the D850, I think that it's the lowest non-compromised ISO - which is either 100 or 125.

Thank you. Always a pleasure to read kind words.

I rarely comment on these videos, but I'm doing a crash course in understanding video on my D850 (I have my first video job on it, and I'm moving from broadcast TV cameras) and I wanted to take time off from panicking to say thank you; this is a *really* good video - you managed to introduce so many simple things in a one off video that you answered a load of questions that I didn't even know were questions. So, it's your own fault for being good, because I now have one of my own: I see how the option of auto ISO makes all the difference so I went outside and tried to film with it (shooting with your set up 1/50 - I'm in the UK I was shooting 25fps - at f4) it worked fine - right up until the sun came out and then it had real problems with over exposure. Totally understand I can stop down, but I wanted the depth of field - so, neutral density filter, yes, but that seems a bit excessive, it's what the camera people I worked with did, but this is the brave new world of DSLRs surely there must be a button I can press?? It seems like aperture priority can't really work 'cos as the shutter speed increases it starts producing pictures I don't want. Thoughts? I know you can't hand hold everyone through their nightmares so it's fine if you don't have time to answer. But I do want to thank you for this video - and whatever you are doing with your search optimisation you are doing it right, your video tops most searches. Cheers

Thank you for your kind words, it's always nice to know that I'm providing useful information. No, there's no magic switch - nor (as there might be in broadcast) some nice engineer riding herd on gain (which is called ISO on the D850). ND is it. Some models (not the D850, but apparently the new N7 will) have a log response curve that can help with larger dynamic range scenes. BTW - I don't do any search optimization, I just provide good content, somehow google has figured that out.

Thank you for your kind words. That's a good point, I should add a few notes for shooting in low light situations in my "best video settings" videos. However, there's not that much that's different. In general, just increase the ISO until you have the appropriate exposure. For interiors (like interviews) where there's little movement, a slower shutter speed (say 1/30) may be helpful. If those results aren't working for you - maybe the ISO is too high - a faster lens (say F2.0 or F1.6) will help.
