[QUOTE="romandesign, post: 144575, member: 14046"] Yes, it's a "design decision". Canon chose to not support old lenses and support aperture control. Nikon chose to support old lenses, which means if I'm not mistaken that there is a lever that controls aperture, and as there is one motor which controls mirror and aperture, when mirror is up for video, motor is busy and can't control aperture. The only thing they could do is include another motor, which they did in one of the more expensive Nikons. I'm more worried in the bug with shutter-priority auto, which simply put doesn't work in video - no way to lock shutter to 60 in 30p for example, other than M mode. [/QUOTE]
