5200 Issues

Hey guys. Couple 5200 questions.

1. Can I use variable ISO in video m
ode? Seems like I cannot? When the shutter is down, it does not allow me to selection this feature. Does anyone have experience or tips for this type of shooting with the 5200? Moving camera AF type stuff (using HD2000 glidecam). I think the answer is to shoot in shutter priority mode. Seems to solve this. But what if I want to shoot in full manual? It does not allow it.

2. Why can't I use theLCD preview (shutter down) and have full flexibility with settings while in M manual mode? I can never slow the shutter speed beyond 1/30 with the LCD preview (shutter down). This is horrible for long exposure Manual focus stuff where I want to just zoom zoom zoom in to check focus and then snap at 20 sec or something.

Cheers!
