[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 480323, member: 12496"] I did wonder what "D800 aside" could mean? I decided it must be wrong thinking. :) Yes, D800 movies do have a little more control. Can adjust aperture in real time for example. You didn't say what model you were interested in? You found the control was not as expected, but the other models will Not offer MORE control. D5500 Reference manual (and D3300 Reference manual page 157 says same thing): [ATTACH=CONFIG]172562._xfImport[/ATTACH] D7200 manual page 162 [IMG]http://www.scantips.com/g2/mlv3.jpg[/IMG] Same stuff, except aperture is not mentioned on any of these (aperture must be set before beginning recording movies - which frankly ought to totally rule out any thought of mode S.) I thought the chart should be very useful to your question. And still, except for Manual mode, movie shutter speed and ISO are going to be automatic, and the LCD screen should show what it is doing at the moment. [/QUOTE]
