I bought this camera a long time ago and aside from sports mode/auto I've never done anything with it. This video has revitalized my interest . Great work.
I recently got one of these for my son to learn on and your videos have been invaluable for his learning. Great explanation of everything. Thanks for this video series.
Awesome video! Have had mine for a couple years but haven't digged in the munes until now when i got a hold of a bunch of lenses, this is awesome, thanks!
@@darshanpradhan9238 I do try to upgrade these to the final firmware before recording if I can, so I'm not sure if that's a feature that was added in later firmware version or not. If you don't see it, check also if you're in simple menu mode or not.
Overall very, very good. 👍🏻 Best point is you have evidently planned these tutorials carefully and are using notes. Too many other RUclipsrs ramble and umm and err because they haven't planned properly. Couple of minor criticisms though .... 1/ First video you spent a lot of time (rightly) on do's and don'ts but never mentioned one of the most important - don't leave your camera for long periods with lens or body cap removed. Dust or moisture from speaking or even breathing close to the open body can cause problems. I estimate you had your camera open for about 12 minutes, mostly on it's back during the first 2 videos. Ouch! 2/ IMO for a guide to an upper entry level camera, you spent a little too long on some advanced features and dismissed without any explanation the functions that didn't interest you as a professional. E.g. ADL Please, your audience for a guide video like this is predominantly amateurs perhaps new to DSLRs who want to learn how to use their D5100. I'm not asking for a 10 minute tutorial on ADL, but please 20 seconds to demonstrate what it does rather than just "Don't use it". We are here to learn. Sorry to have taken so much space over such minor criticisms. Overall this is 100% the most useful D5100 guide I have watched so far. Great work 🏆👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you and that's good feedback. I'd never thought to mention the importance of leaving a lens or lens cap on a camera and that's a good one that I need to add to the digital camera outline. And you're right for the ADL, that's as much a knowledge gap on my part as anything. I can rework that for future Nikon videos that I record. Thank you again!
This is first DSLR camera whom My husband bought for me but sadly I cant operate what it should be, in other words I cant view my photos when I took photos and it shows my memory card is empty.
The accuracy of the information from the beginning leaves something to be desired..... you say that the maximum on the card is 128Gb, and I successfully use a 256 Gb card

Thank you and I hope your son gets a lot out of photography.

Thank you!
Did you have to update the firmware to get the screen (orange/grey) like that?

How big is the memory card? IIRC, there is a maximum size the cards can be and if so it will be covered in the memory card section.

@@TheRika79 curious. When I tried a 256 it would only recognize half the card.
