[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 480356, member: 12496"] OK, maybe it is semantics in some degree, but that behavior is only because shutter speed and ISO are automatically adjusted in all movie modes except Manual. Standard definitions do not apply. There's other things different about movies, for example, in Manual mode, ISO is NOT automatic, even if Auto ISO is on elsewhere. Page 159 says this, except it also points out the Movie Setting that will prohibit even Manual adjustments from adjusting shutter speed or ISO (then same as the other modes)... why that menu is necessary is a mystery to me. :) I suppose it leaves no possible risk that operation is not automatic. My own notion is that a little $300 camcorder runs circles around using the DSLR for movies. DSLR does have some high ISO advantage, and can allow preference for limited depth of field, and the camcorder is about as fully automatic (cannot even set aperture in any way), but it sure is easier to use, and focus is better (no visible seeking), and if not using an external microphone, no lens zoom audio noise is recorded, and I can carry it in my front pants pocket. Your D3300 really does not show the real time settings that are automatically active while recording movies? I don't have one, but page 38 of Reference indicates it shows the same as my D800 (bottom row). [IMG]http://www.scantips.com/g2/mlv4.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
