Shooting Video using the D7200

[@aviweisbach7816]

I don't think I have ever commented on a youtube video, but I must say this was an EXCELLENT introduction to shooting video on a DSLR - thanks so much!

[@THR.Cru2]

Great vídeo. Please keep making videos for the Nikon D7200. Greetings from Mexico.

Using Nikon D7200 to shoot for my work. This video is my life-saver. Huge thanks from Thailand!

[@cammyclark3125]

I learned so much in your easy-to-understand and straightforward tutorial. I have had the 7200 for a long time for photos, but had used a video camera for videos. Now, I am confident to use my 7200 for video, too.

[@YurmanVisuals]

So glad to hear that! enjoy.

[@SHILPNIRMIT]

Thanks for the video🙏, it is very informative, I would also like to know about 1920x1080 @60fps setting.

[@ianzhao5693]

I learned a LOT from this video. Step to step...Thank you! Looking forward to learning more!

[@howtodostuff9121]

Have viewed a lot of video tutorials, this is beautifully executed, calm, informative and covers a lot of detail, thank you!

[@lukemagera6121]

Such an excellent video! I love that you went into detail on the manual exposure settings of the camera. For example, I was struggling to adjust my aperture in manual mode and didn't realize that it was because you can't do it while in live view! Many other videos out there mention manual mode but don't discuss how to actually use it. Life saver!

[@maciakba]

guys you are making perfect video tutorials thank you

[@norwichhouse]

This is a fantastically helpful and complete video. Thank you very much. I have been still photos since the mid-50s but I am only just trying out video on my D7200. My eyesight is poor so I tend to use the camera to record things that I can't see too well to view later. It would help me enormously if I could get a text file of the details in this video so that I can have them by me when I am doing a video. At my age you do not always remember things too well. Thank you.

[@theroyalfamilyabuja4770]

Wow!!! Best review ever. Precise and excellent. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@daithiod]

Great explanation sir. Thank you. I’ve just one query concerning ISO. Is it reasonable to shoot video with the ISO in auto mode or should that always be manual as well? I want my students to use these cameras in a class project in the coming academic year so any advice would be most welcome.

[@PapaRich3165]

Tremendous video! Been struggling with my d7200 in video mode for a while. You answered all my questions! (so far :-)

[@YurmanVisuals]

Great to hear! have fun with the camera

[@sosuaevents]

There is an app called QDSLR that connects the camera to a smartphone, and using the phone`s touch screen I can change all the settings. This is the most powerful app for Nikon, Canon and Sony cameras but I notice lot of people don`t know about it.

[@Jimmy_Cavallo]

💥 4:43 the D7200 has no autofocus feature while shooting video? What’s with the focus area square in the middle and the few options when holding in the button on the front and spinning the two thumb wheels?

[@YurmanVisuals]

It can focus while shooting video, just poorly. If you want control over what you're doing, I recommend manual focus with the D7200 for video. My apologies if that wasn't clear from the video.

[@muminki7783]

Hi, Great video. The thing is on my d7200 in LIVE VIEW VIDEO I can change the aperture using front wheel. Is it the effect of new updates or settings, or something else ;-)? I have version C 1.04 and L 2.018 6:15

[@ELHeeeth]

Incredibly helpful, thank you. Learned a heck of a lot. What focal length was the lens you were using? Really helps for reference. I've been filming a little but have felt the footage is a bit fuzzy at 720, it must be down to the frame rate.

I have a question: I wonder if image-stabilizing works while making videos. I made a short test with the Af-S 18-105 VR, but I can not tell any difference between VR on or off? The dog is really cute.

[@ghostsonyxperia1900]

then you have use Sony camera to get the internal stabilizing cause this function not available in Nikon or canon even if you turns on the VR in Lens >>> use tripod or shoulder stabilizer (which is expensive)

[@hr3178]

@@ghostsonyxperia1900 Of course the image stabilization in the Lens works also with video.

[@CraigsWorkshop]

Excellent instructional video, thank you!

[@James.Walston]

[@YurmanVisuals]

[@norwichhouse]

Thank you for this video. If you have the camera set to manual how do you know if the exposure is correct? For 20 odd years I had a Yashica FR1 and you just matched up speed and aperture but I cannot see how to do this on this camera.

[@sks0403]

I'm practicing. Thank you for wonderful video .

[@Claranet-Addon]

Hey hey, thanks for this very good video. Did you already make one for use of external mic gear with the D7200?

good vid. I'll be using this camera for my next video

[@juanzamprile6617]

Great video. I have a question. Why cant i move the diaphragm opening while Im recording. Thanks

[@Wyurman]

Changing aperture while in live view is not possible on the D7200 or less expensive Nikon cameras. I don't know why. It is possible on the D7500 and more expensive Nikon cameras.

[@AlainCovers]

thanks teacher :) could you make please a comparison to the new canon 80d please

[@rook7777ify]

I noticed that your rear display is in color during video mode. I cannot find a way to get mine to color from b/w. Live view in camera mode is in color but when I switch to video it goes back to b/w. Please Help!! Thank you!

[@DavidDowneyAllstateAgency]

So, if you recommend using a detached mic for sound, such as a wireless lapel mic, why not use auto focus, since you then won't pick up the noises the camera is making to focus? I though you also taught that in the majority of circumstances, the camera does fine with auto white balance? So why do you recommend manual here?

[@YurmanVisuals]

The noise of the AF motor is only one reason to avoid AF for video. The AF is slow and not predictable in Live View. Images will move in and out of focus. It just doesn't work reliably or quickly enough in Live View on these cameras. There is some technology out there on some other cameras that seems to be working well, but not the D7200. Auto White balance works very well for still photos in most situations. It is constantly adjusting to small changes in the color of a space. Which is fine for still photos. You can adjust each image separately as necessary (or shoot raw for more control). In video, if your white balance is adjusting constantly then your color can change within a clip or even flicker - and that is very difficult to fix. Shooting with a set white balance gives you more consistent and controllable results in video.

[@ThirdPlanet360]

Very useful video. Thank you.

[@agatarimiski6684]

Hi.. What can you suggest a great lenses of this camera? Either videos or pictures that affordable. Is it also You can used a 18-55mm lens?

[@ryanthomas9306]

Agatarimiski idk what's affordable, but I started with the 1.8 35 mm to learn portraits and such. Then one should buy the sigma 2.8 sigma 17-50 for roughly 400 and if you want a wider angle get the tokina 11-16 used. If you want a longer range you can get the 18-300 nikkor kit or 55-200 depending on your budget, I bought a 55-200 for 130 bucks If you have the budget and want the best you can buy then do the 18-35 sigma 1.8, but it doesn't Have stabilization.

[@eddmaster9]

Great video! I'm considering buying a D7200 mainly for video; however, I noticed that while choosing frame size and frame rate, 1920x1080 60p was greyed out and not available for shooting. Among other things, I want to shoot at 60p for slow motion clips... Was there a reason for the 60p not being available?

[@andresgarrido2129]

Hi, I own a D7200. To get the 60p feature, the only way is to use the 1.3x crop factor. Bad thing. I don’t recommend this camera for video, specially because the auto focus in live view its very slow and not exactly precise, with a lot of hunting. Other thing is that you have to quit live view if you want to change the aperture. On the other hand, it’s amazing for photography, excellent image quality and features for the price. Hope it be helpful!

[@omarhassan8943]

what about shooting a moving subject, how could I track the subject with manual focus?? it would be really hard since there is no reliable AF system in the video mood Like that in Canon

[@ghostsonyxperia1900]

same problem with me but you can trick the camera by hit the back bottom of focus and shift the role to 3d + c

[@mineuik]

Hello i was wondering if you know how to set the camera to autofocus without me having to press the shutter button halfway during a video so i can shoot a vlog or something. Mind to help me out?

[@guanabana37]

In live-view you keep pressing the AF/M button on the left side, than you can select AF-F mode with the rear wheel. With the front wheel you can adjust the focus-area.

[@AzfarRahman]

It has autofocus option and can focus while shooting...

[@calebscholes1899]

Any tips for night time filming?

[@YurmanVisuals]

Shooting in low light is tough. And the D7200 is an older camera, so it won't handle low light as well as newer cameras. Using lenses with larger maximum apertures will help. The more light you can get to the sensor, the better. While you typically want to shoot with a shutter speed of 1/60(or 1/50) you can try using a slightly slower shutter speed. 1/30 will look ok, as long as you're not shooting fast-moving action. Beyond that, it's about looking for light - you can only shoot what the camera can see. Good luck!

[@darxcod]

Hi ! Thanks for this simple but so effective tutorial. Do you also have noise problems on your video even with quite acceptable ISO ? I took some videos at home (artificial light) with a 35mm f/1,8 (the brightest lens i have) to get ISO as low as possible. I film at f/2-2,8 (to get a reasonable Depth of field), 1/50 (25 fps) and conditions allow me to get 1000 ISO which is not so high. However when i watch them on full screen (1080p), they are really noisy. If there are black ou dark grey subjects on the film we see a lot of 'white' noise (for example in the eyes of my cats ^^) Tried to use noise reduction setting from Hi to OFF but don't really see a huge difference. I also tried other picture controls than the custom FLat one (to make easier post production color correction) without success :s i know it is not made for videos but I wonder if this is just the limit of the camera or a setting problem. Thanks you for your help !

[@Wyurman]

You'll see more noise in the shadows, but I'm not sure why you'd get a lot of noise at ISO 1000 if you have a proper exposure. If you have a link send it along. Make sure you're set to ISO 1000 and not 10000, it's an easy mistake to make.

[@Yanisoz]

Nice! But what about color settings? I found that ''Standard'' is too strong. '' NL'' is better, even may be ''Flat''...

[@YurmanVisuals]

It depends on how much time you can spend on color grading. In general, the flat and neutral settings give you the most control in post production. But if you don't have those skills, or are in a hurry, standard may be best.

Donovan G Have you changed the switch on the bottom right (“LV”) of your camera from picture to video mode? Sorry, my response is probably a little late 🙈😅

[@chrisedmonds6243]

standard for australia? frame size

[@Wyurman]

I think you mean frame rate? I did a quick Google search and it looks like Australia would normally use 25fps. But you probably should double-check with someone there. For frame size, HD is 1920x1080. People are moving towards 4K, though it's not quite as common yet.

I did everything but when I try to shoot I can not focus manually, I am not sure why and it is frustrating.

[@Wyurman]

You need to turn off autofocus on the camera body, and probably the lens. The switches are on the side of the camera. After that, you use the focusing ring on the lens to focus - if you have the standard zoom, there is a wide ring that zooms the lens and a smaller ring on the lens that adjusts the focus. hope that helps.
