Sip, I found a used D7000 on Amazon. There it sat in my shopping cart for a few hours. I could not make the commitment to checkout. Then I watched this video as well as "Nikon d7000 camera is still an excellent camera for manual photography in the year 2020 and beyond." Excellent tutorial. You helped my decision. My order is now being processed. Thank you Sip!
Once you have the classic vintage lenses like nikon 50mm f1.4 or 135mm f3.5, you will love how the image will turn out. Take your time taking pictures; each shot is an important shot.
Had the D7000 for many years, and thought it wasn't good for video filming, but thanks to your video showing me a sign of hope :)
For filming in 1080p, it is very good.
@@educatetube i shot some video in af but it was a bit blurry 😓, maybe because i have low light in the room😔
@@sammytsai Add a light source to your video and manually focus with the zoom button. I recently bought tons of LED spotlights for cheap (less than $20 each) at my local store and it helps with my video quality. I got 250 lumens and up to 1500 lumens spotlights. You will find having added lights will greatly improve the background noise to the video. Make sure to manually colour balance your videos.
im using a D7000 too...ur vids are very educational, thank you. :-)
Thanks for video , having recently picked up a second hand d7000 to get some fun from my old manual lens, found your trip through the menu very useful 😀👍☘
Thanks. Enjoy your camera.
Thanks so much for the info! Trying my D7000 for some video..😊
Thank you very much for this helpful video.
I'm using the AVerMedia HDMI port with the Nikon D7000. My aspect ratio seems to be cut off on zoom and any screen (a little smaller than the full screen). This is affecting me if I want to have a background. Is there a way to fix this aspect ratio to go full screen?
Thank you this video was so helpful!!!
Hi, dear Thank you so much for this video. I used to take ok videos with this camera but lately, it has been impossible. What did I do wrong? I would appreciate it a lot if you could tell me,. I am setting up the picture mode and taking a picture and the colors are fine. I am switching the video mode, the color is extremely overexposed, not much color. It is impossible to set video colors lately. Thank you so much for your time.
Set everything to manual setting. Make sure to white balance properly.
great video how do i get a 16:9 aspect ratio with the d7000
Very helpful tips, thank you.
Thanks.
my problem is to get the proper exposure in video. NO auto iso or i cant see the overexposed are signs while in video.. pls help ;/
Great channel!
Hey buddy I really enjoy all your videos and I am a huge fan. I have one big question for you. How can I record my camera's screen on the nikon d7000 please I am begging for answers, thank you.
I have the same D7000 with those settings and a variety of lenses (70-300mm, 50mm, 35mm) yet the footage always looks grainy and bad. My cell phone looks better! Am I doing something wrong?
Shutter speed and ISO set too high? Turn on flash when photographing low light situation. Aperture wide open (f2 to f2.8 is ideal)? Manual focus? 70-300mm not the best lens to use. Smartphone tends to sharpen their image and the software may apply noise reduction automatically.
@@educatetube Photos from the camera look great, however, the video is terrible. I have adjusted all the settings properly. I understand now that the D7000 isn't exactly meant to replace a camcorder even though it's capable of shooting video. After watching other youtube videos, I think the issue is lighting. Unlike the cell-phone which uses software to enhance the footage, the DSLR is way more sensitive to poorly lit conditions. I'll try it again with added lights. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
No problem. Thanks for watching.
Please address exposure/iris adjust during live view on this cam. Seems a bit cumbersome. Thanks
Set everything manual and white balance appropriately. ISO set between 400 to 800 and set up lots of good lighting system.
@@educatetube ok. But how to judge/adjust exposure and iris during live view? Seems like I have to exit live view and reinstate for each adjustment.
@@anonymissed3611 Did you try to go to the menu and activate the information display option? If you did and it still does not allows you to see the info you wanted, then this is the limit of this camera.
Is the Nikon D7000's mic capability by default is bad comparing to newer camera?
As I'm trying to make short videos and am never satisfy with it's audio recorded even when using an external microphone
If I am doing short films I would never rely on any camera's internal mic recording. I would go with good external audio recorder and sync it with the camera internal audio recording during video editing.
Very useful video, thanks a lot.👍
No problem.
Thanks for the vid, its helpful content. Just wondering how do you do the monitoring when filming when D7000. Once again, greatly appreciate your video.
I used mirror as the cheapest option. Or external monitor via hdmi if you have extra monitor lying around.
Thank you so much its really helpful. Whats the video editing plugins you used in this Tutorial and how can I get it thanks ??
No plugins. Just using DaVinci Resolve Studio version. I think the DaVinci Resolve free version also works well for video editing.
Thank You 💯
Hi Sip Ski, i’m planning to get a camera to film dance for my studio. Is the Nikon D7000 suitable for the occasion? Need help!
Is it for video or photo? If it is for photos then it is a great camera, but for videos it is ok. I generally use Nikon D7000 for photos.
Спасибо!
Hi, your video for the Nikon D7000 is very helpful. What about shooting video for outdoor activity, what lens would you recommend for a low light that can capture great video, not expensive though.
For low light I use nikon 50mm f1.4 shutter speed 1/30 or less and iso800. Manual adjust white balance. Turn down sharpness and contrast. Turn up saturation.
There are actually some "patched" firmware versions to get a little bit more control over the video capabilities.
Like higher bit-rates as well as removing the time based video restrictions and I believe a better HDMI output.
Obviously comes with some risks involved.
Maybe I am completely mistaken, but I think that capturing the HDMI out will give a better image quality in general?
As far as my research shows, there is actually no clean HDMI output from the D7000. In case you don't know, this means you can't output just what the sensor is seeing, but you get all the focusing brackets, settings, etc. It is really designed for rigging and using an external monitor for framing and focusing while shooting in live view/movie mode. I wasn't aware of this when I bought mine second-hand, and planned to use it as a webcam, but upon further research I found this out. I know there is actually a third party firmware patch like you mentioned, but the stability of it is questionable at best. Personally, since my D7000 is still my main stills camera, I have decided to not take the risk and snoop around for an older mirrorless with a clean HDMI output for less than 100 bucks.
So no, I don't think the HDMI output is any better than the Camera's internal recorder. Especially considering you have to use a capture card to record from the HDMI output at all, which raises costs and depending on the quality of the capture card, the video codec utilized, and then the program that is used to finally record it all play into it. It just MIGHT have a little bit higher quality compression than the camera's built in compression, but I honestly doubt it.
Where are the patches firmwares?
I think it is taken down from the website. Hopefully there are files still available online.
Hi.. What is the free video software and where can i download it from? Thanks.
DaVinci Resolve 18 is free Hollywood quality video editor; however, you need a pretty beefy computer hardware to handle this software. Just search "DaVinci Resolve 18 download" on the search engine.
@@educatetube , that is true. Those apps require lots of memory and processing. I have a HP gaming laptop, but just realized it only has 8 of RAM. Yikes. Thanks.
Your Audio recording is not on stereo, im using my headphones in the office and only the R-piece im using on my ear. You're already talking but i cant hear anything, then the intro music played which is okay. and after that you speak again without sound, so i thought of using the L-piece and im right, your sound is on MONO. You have to consider editing again.
the file gets stuck when downloading :(
what's your editing software?
Davinci Resolve v16 Studio. Will be upgrading to v17 soon.
no sound?
Sound is really bad video looks really good
