Ok, I'm still confused. Im not a technical guy so please excuse my ignorance but can someone clear a few things up for me.
On my consumer 3ccd panny camcorder, I can set the following in manual mode: White balance Exposure (ie F stop) Gain (add or remove gain) Now as far as I understand, the d90 in video mode only allows manaul focus. Thats fine, but can you set the WB? Am I right in saying that you CAN choose an apature value (F number) and lock it in place whilst shooting video? ie the cam will keep that chosen F value regardless of light level? (If so, I understand that this would be unusable if I wanted to pan from say a room where I had set exposure and locked it, to a bright lit doorway, BUT if I wanted to light a controlled situation, I could lock for that scene which would be fine). Does the D90 add gain? If so, can this be locked in place also? Sorry for the dumb questions... James |

I want the answer too so I will repeat the same question
Is the HDMI output clean with no overlays? Does it output live at all? output while recording? |

Vincent - sound like , if one is going to shoot video with the d90 , they need a hoodman , or similar device /k
|
A camcorder might be the better option - for now.

With all the limitations in its HD video, can I say that it would be better for me to wait for an improved version of the D90 or even consider Canon 5D if I really want to do some good HD from a D-SLR?
|
Yes, I think the second generation of HDSLR's will iron out many of the limitations of the current cameras.
|
I hope after Christmas there will be a quick drop in the price of all video capable D-SLRs and also the emergence of more brands and models of such similar products.
