[QUOTE="jherring002, post: 487944, member: 38994"] I'm pretty sure it is known you can't adjust the setting while taking video on that camera. I never said adjust while filming.Now to the meat. You are absolutely right that they all effect expisure. However you don't use the settings in the same way as you would if you were taking a photograph. Her settings Shutter: 1/50 (recommended minimum for fps of 24) Aperture: 2 (basically wide open. She could go to 1.8 but that wouldn't matter much) Iso: 200 The only thing she could adjust is ISO which is what I said. So disagree with me if you want, but what I said is accurate. If you are approaching video as if you were taking a picture, OK bit its a little different. Generally you pick your FPS and then lock in your shutter speed off of that. Rule of thumb is your shutter should be double your fps. Example: 24fps@50 30fps@60 60fps@125 You can increase your shutter speed for different stylist effects but you typically don't want to go beneath that. Then you lock in your aperture depending on what you want to do. If you are focusing on a moving talking person, you don't want to be at an aperture of 1.8 because it will be extremely hard to keep that person in focus. So you have to choose an aperture based on what you are shooting. This is why I said you don't basically use it to adjust exposure because you are trying to pull focus or film moving subjects, you've got to set the aperture based on what you need in order to keep your focus. That leaves iso. This is basically what you have yo use to adjust the exposure after you have those other 2 settings where you want them. That is all I was saying. You don't approach video as if you were taking a photo. You would get some pretty crazy video that way. Cheers Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
