[QUOTE="GARoss, post: 124230, member: 13227"] Hey, what's in a name? ;) I guess because video isn't a dslrs main function. DSLR video isn't discussed much by anyone. But, at Nikon's website there are function explanation tutorials covering all of their dslrs - including video focus & exposure. Newer models D3200 &[B][URL="http://www.nikonusa.com/fileuploads/Digitutor/D5200/index.html"][COLOR=#ff0000] D5200[/COLOR][/URL][/B] do have a continuous AF & AE mode in preferences called AF-F. Select the D5200 link above & it will go the Nikon D5200 tutorial page. Select the 3rd tutorial down from the left [I]Recording Movies/Recording & Viewing Movies[/I] & the 2nd chapter is [I]Choosing a Focus Mode[/I] explains & demonstrates how it works & how to select it in preferences. I realize video would probably be much easier with a separate video cam but for my needs, video built into the dslr is just fine. If the D7100 includes AF-F consider it purchased!:D [ATTACH=CONFIG]29564._xfImport[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]29565._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
