Nikon D750 Cinematic Video | How To Pimp Up Your Videos

[@adrianalfordphotography]

I should point out these are my run and gun video settings on the Nikon D750. Ideally to achieve an optimal cinematic look, I’d shoot in M (manual) mode and aim at 1/60th shutter speed, F2 aperture and a low ISO. Depending on the light, you would probably have to add a variable ND filter to stop over exposing with these settings.

[@heatherandthehounds]

I’ve used the D750 as my main camera for over 4 years now, but I’ve only just tried shooting movies over the last couple of weeks. Thanks so much for this tutorial; I have found it very useful.

[@pjc3163]

I've had my D750 for 6 years now, it's the perfect camera for landscape photography. I often use it with my old manual focus lenses and it does an awesome job. Love the photos with the 28mm f/2.8 AIS. If you're not in a hurry to take that photo, take a look at trying some classic lenses. Thank you for your wonderful video!

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Many thanks for watching. I still love my D750 too.

[@jcc6664]

Totally agree. Old prime lenses are just amazing. I use my 55mm f2.8 A1s Micro-Nikkor a lot with brilliant results. Autofocus isn't essential in Macro situations. I am an age where autofocus was once a distant dream. Manual focus keeps your talent in check.

I own 2 D750s and love them both. I just wish the AF was quicker in acquisition for moving subjects. I used the D700 for 10 years and never missed an action shot, but since I have gone to the D750 a number of years ago, I certainly have fewer keepers. With the D700 I was hitting 95-98% with the D750 my hit rate with the same lenses in similar scenarios is about 80%. :(

[@jjstephenson2692]

@@adrianalfordphotography Hi Adrian, it's a bit of both but to be honest, i've only been experimenting using the 18-55mm kit lens which is making me lose my will to live a bit as it just doesnt seem to be producing anything that's a bit punchy without a fair old bit of post! Dead keen to invest in the lens and maybe a little lighting setup, as my office has the D750 gathering dust on a shelf.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

For the white balance issue their should be a "flouro" icon that you can switch to. Alternatively you can adjust white balance manually to something like 3000 kelvin. Yes, the kit lens is for very basic photography not much else. A 50mm F1.8G lens should be relatively cheap and there should be some good ones second hand if you can't afford new. I picked up mine cheap here in Australia second hand (practically new) for $150AUD (equivalent to $100USD). You can also buy lighting set ups very cheaply off ebay new. My home studio lighting kit cost me about $200 total.

I recently bought a used D750 with the 50mm 1.8G to replace my ancient D80. It's a spectacular improvement in all respects but that video AF is an unexpected major disappointment, and I wish I had researched that aspect better. Unfortunately, it's just a hobby and I have not yet figured out what I exactly want to do with... so I just cannot justify spending the money to upgrade to the D780, which I understand, has video AF that's comparable to what the competition has been offering for years. Your video gives me hope that it's possible to get some great footage out of it and this purchase was worth it :)

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching. I think this proves you can get fantastic video quality out of the D750. But as you say and I agree the autofocus is virtually unusable. If you don't mind pre focusing your shots before going into record using back button focus then it works great.

[@donsuttor7249]

Hi Adrian, I have a D750 and like it. Very good for sports. I have never really tried to do anything video wise and consider myself a complete novice. I want to make a recording of a band playing at a pub. If you could give me some basic pointers, it would be much appreciated. I will be using a Sigma 24-70 lens. So given we are in a low light situation, and I need to record for about 80-90 mins to get the entire show. What settings do you suggest , how big of a SD card do I need? How many batteries? Also, I assume I need an external mic as well. Is there anything I need to know with the mic settings? Cheers Don

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Hi Don thanks for watching. I'd say 2 batteries should work. The D750 can only record 20 mins max video clips. So you will have to stop and restart a new clip, (best between songs near that time limit) Set yourself up on a tripod where you won't get bumped into by people. Use something like a Rode VideoMicro Mic, set audio to manual and get a level when band are doing sound test so it doesn't distort. You can also do this for the vision side of things. Go to M (manual) set aperture to low number for low light, F4 for example, adjust ISO when band or roadies are set up and doing full lighting check. 64GB SD card should do it. Cheers.

Do you have any reccomendations when it comes to filming horses or any kind of animals please? My main concern is the focus ❤

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching. I can say whatever you do, do not rely on the autofocus on the D750. Make sure you use back button autofocus, prefocus your shot, then go into record as I did in this video, making sure your subject does not wander too far away or closer to the camera or they go out of focus. Use an aperture of say around F4 to F8, that should help a little with depth of field giving your bigger focus depth and less chance of something going out of focus. If you don't intend to use slow motion for shots, then 1920 x 1080 @ 24/25FPS is sufficient and gives you longer clip record times than 60FPS. Lastly, have fun, very important.

[@maxbouvatte]

hi Adrian. So I understand that when shooting 24/25 fps you want to double the shutter speed for a "natural look"Would the same be true when shooting 60fps for slo mo? wouldn't we want to shoot at 120 shutter speed...or maybe its best to stay at 50/60th a second like you said in description, or maybe it makes no difference once you adjust things in post. Hope that makes sense thanks for the vid

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Hi Max - I shot at 60fps and in my Premiere project I was at 25fps. Interpreting the footage at 25fps gives me a smidge over 2 times slow motion and that filmic look I know what you're saying about the 50/60fps project. If you shot at 100/120fps the same rule would apply.

[@valerienew9366]

Hi Adrain how can I continously focus on my moving subject in Video mode?

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Hi Valerie - unfortunately the D750 does not have the best autofocus system in video mode. You'll find it keeps losing focus continually if you try to track a subject. Nikon now has the Z6II camera which has much improved focus in photo and video modes, but there are cameras from Sony and Canon that are even better. Hope this helps you 🙏

[@valerienew9366]

@@adrianalfordphotography thank you so much Adrian for your reply. I really appreciated it. From this KZbin video I saw you were shooting a person when walking. May I know what mode and focus you use if I do not want to have the camera continuously refocus the subject like yours ? But your videos look awesome and I wish to create short clip like yours. Thank you 😊

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Hi Valerie - I assigned Single Point auto focus to the back AE-L/AF-L button. By doing this you can leave your lens in autofocus and you don't have to switch it to manual. I prefocus my shot on the person or subject by hitting the AE-L/AF-L button, then go into record (as I did in this video) then followed my subject keeping the same distance behind her while walking. If you watch this other video I did, it'll show you how to set up the back button focus I just explained, but keep in mind I use Group Area Focus in this video instead you can just use Single Point Autofocus - hope this helps kzbin.info/www/bejne/bn7bnKKprcmHbLs

Also, I was using openshot, which is open and libre, however going straight to a 25fps meant that it was skipping a frame every now and then, what with the original frame rate being 59.94fps out of camera. Changing to 24.97 solved this issue. Is 25fps in Premiere Pro smooth from the start? Thanks again!

Thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate you taking the time to watch my video. I use the GoPro Hero 7 too and it's great for vlogging. As for another 4K camera with a flip screen that won't break the bank, that's a tough one. Canons always have good video auto focus, as do Sony and Panasonic. The closest thing I could see to not breaking the bank with a flip screen is the Canon M50, but I think it does crop the 4K which is the only downside I can see? Sony A73 would be good, but has no flip screen and I think the Panasonics may a bit expensive. Maybe also look at the new(ish) Canon 200D Mark II. Hope this helps, cheers.

@@adrianalfordphotography interesting thank you. Do you know of a good guide on how to do that? Never used my d750 for video

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Start off standing still together. Get your focus point on back of head (manual). Go into record, then take off together at same time. Walk slowly, keep elbows tucked into rib cage holding camera steady as you gp. Kind of walk like a ninja, heel toe, heel toe.

@@adrianalfordphotography ah ok I thought you meant you did something in camera haha :) Thank you

[@rianskot]

is still worth it to buy d750 this year?

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Tough call. It depends on your budget. If money is tight, get a D750. If you can afford it, go for a Z6II. The D750 is awesome for stills, but the autofocus in video is ordinary. The Z6II has good stills and video. You have a bigger range of lenses you can buy for the D750 over the Z6II. Like I said tough call.

[@rianskot]

@@adrianalfordphotography is nikon Z6ii can use nikon fx/dx lens? or only z lens?

[@summerrblu]

I still own mine think 3 years now maybe more lol i was just recoding with it and then when i am bout to do my second set boom it stops recording

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thank you for watching. Did it run out of battery or did it run out of the time allowed for doing a video clip? Was the memory card full? Let me know, I'm interested to see what the problem was 🙏

[@summerrblu]

@@adrianalfordphotography well it was fine then my battery died and i changed it right away to a fuññy charged one as i have 2 and then noting lol it started to heat up which i found weird. Lolol i panicked and put it in the fridge when it got cold now I had to wait till it was thawed down cause the lens was foggy then it started working again so i honestly not sure what caused the issue

[@adrianalfordphotography]

That's so weird? That's the first time I've heard that happening on a D750. If it overheats, just let it sit in some shade or inside somewhere and let it cool down while turned off by itself. Best not to put in fridge. It definitely sounds like there's a technical issue inside the camera that only a repairer could fix though. If your budget allows, I guess you could trade for a cheap Z6 with FTZ adaptor or Z6ii?

[@summerrblu]

@@adrianalfordphotography i wont put in fridge again, i just panicked lol

[@francismusakalu2215]

Which one is best between 6dmark ii and d750

[@adrianalfordphotography]

D750, but I'm biased. Best Google that question.

How do you transfer your video and pictures to your Macbook? I am having the hardest time with this.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

I have an SD card reader on the side of my Macbook. I just drag my clips or photos off the card into a folder on my desktop. I then open them up in Premiere, Lightroom or Photoshop.

This camera is only usable for video when paired with tamron 35mm 1.8 vc and tamron 40mm 1.8 vc and tamron 85mm 1.8 vc becouse all hv stablization..

[@adrianalfordphotography]

You are completely 100% incorrect. The D750 can use ANY F mount lens for video, a lens does not HAVE to have image stabilisation just for video. Why would you need stabilisation on a tripod for example!

[@andrewhookerphotography4774]

Another great “how to” video Adrian. I will have to try something similar when I start to vlog again. Thanks for sharing.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Cheers thanks for watching Andrew. Yeah hopefully we'll be able to go out again soon here in Australia. Would love to be able to shoot a sunrise again. Take care mate in the meantime.

@@adrianalfordphotography thanks for your replay brother . But in video mode exposure meter will disappear . So what we can do?

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Go into live view in video. Hit info button and cycle through until you bring up the histogram

[@sottosopra4769]

I sold my d750 for a Z6. D750 is good for still but horrible for video.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Agree, the Z6 is better for video. Both cameras are good for stills.

Thank you!
