First time with Nikon D90 video

[AussieByron]

Here are a couple of clips taken today on my D90 in video mode. I have basically no idea of what settings to use. I also used a Tokina 10-17mm lens which wasnt really suited for small subjects. I also tried to use the focusing lights from my dual Ds125's but it didnt really work.

Will try and do some more with different ideas and setups soon.

The jellyfish one is very nice!
Pls take video in deeper water, would like to see the results.

I am keen to try more video. One of the issues is lighting. I need more than the focusing lights off the strobes.

I am thinking of using a 60mm macro and my 10W HID and do some marco videos as the focus might be easier and the HID puting out enough light for it.

Thanks for posting, Mark. This is my next camera, probably, although not for the video. It looks better than I expected though.

I am very happy with the camera so far. The video feature is a bonus. I would like to see how it goes in Macro with my HID. I think it could producr some interesting results.
