- Опубликовано: 22 мар 2024
- As a hybrid shooter on the Nikon Z8 getting the setting right in the moment can be really difficult. As a wildlife photographer that also shoots video switching seamlessly between photo and video mode is key to my success. This hidden setting on the Nikon Z8 can help you get perfect shutter speeds in your videos automatically. We will discuss the importance of shutter angle and how it applies to video and then show you how to set it and forget for each of your shooting banks.

I am not even a nikon shooter but this is genius
Great information. As someone who only does photography I thought I may as well take advantage of all the capabilities of the Z8 and try and learn some new tricks. This opens the door nicely for me. Thanks for your time man
I set up my shooting bank and lock at 60p for Bank A. When I go to lock bank B at 125p, it stays locked on 60p. What the heck am I missing here?
In M mode shatter speed do not auto change only manually so why you need to lock it in menu?
Ah ha! Thank you, I hadn’t thought about this. Great tip. I’m a Nikon wildlife shooter and fledgling RUclipsr in Southern Africa and I’m enjoying viewing a totally different environment on your channel. Thanks
amazing!! thank you. i never checked this one! i was just anoied. ok i am still are, cause switching from photo to video mode should never involving the MODE settings switch aswell. I like to shoot photo in A MODE aswell, but having this in Video just suxxs.
This was extremely helpful, especially the g3 setting. One thing that might help others: go to your desired Shooting bank and set it (24, or 5x24 or whatever), then set your shutter speed (while in video mode), then go to g3 and lock shutter speed. Then repeat for your next Shooting bank, BUT, don't forget to unlock g3 before setting you desired shutter speed, then lock it again, especially if you are using the same Custom bank with different Shooting banks. Now when you toggle from Photo mode to video, it will revert back to the desired shutter speed as described here. I know this repeats some of the video, but I was confused by how to set the shutter speed before locking it (I was setting it while in photo mode), and I couldn't set it on another bank after I had already locked it. So hope these tips help others.
Perfect. l couldn't find shutter angle either. Thx for the info.
unable to change shutter speed in video mode and don't know why
As a guy of nearly 70 that's been shooting stills for over half a century but is only really exploring video now this kind of advice is so good and welcome. Thanks for this. 😊
This is incredibly helpful! Thank you so much.
Fantastic tip. I set up my banks like you do, but hadn't even thought of locking the shutter speed! This is gonna save my vid clips for sure
HI from the raincoast - Oregon. Thanks Stu for the great vids! I just traded up to z8 and wow what a powerhouse this camera is... I'm working on settings and banks so this is a big help. Looking forward to more on your channel!
Nice tip, thank you!
THSNKYOU
Thank you for this video, it was very useful!
Thank you, a very helpful video.
Great tks
Thank you! Great advice! I wish it was so easy with the codecs as well.. Any suggestion for preferred codec for 4k would be highly appreciated. Thanks again.
Hi there , this does not work for me . Only way it works on slow motion for me is to set video file type H.264 8bit (MP4) and then select frame size / frame rate to 1920 x 1080 ; 30p x4
