I'll try and get on later. I'm the worst person in the world for saying I'll be on, and don't show though :o

I was wondering whether you were on here mate! Didn't realise you owned the Z3M, too. Makes sense now that I either see one or the the other most days. I've stopped driving that way at the moment because of the bloody traffic lights at Eversley, lol.

Cheers all. Cheers mate. Go for it, I picked it up at the weekend - definate upgrade to my D40! # Ta sweetcheeks. The music was a little different for me tbh, a song by Sigur Rós. Cheers for the tip Mark. I'm using Premiere, fortunately, so will give it a go. Not used it in about 3 years...

Cheers for the critique guys. Agree with all the points! Will get some more practice in at the weekend, slower panning and a better location, i.e. not my drive. Watched it again this morning and cringed, lol! 1080p seems to working now though, but doesn't help.

Nice work mate!

Spent this evening giving the car a wash and decided to have a mess around with the video on the camera. Quickly threw together something in Premiere, nothing special - just a test more than anything. Can't work out why it's not uploaded as 1080p though :S Excuse the shakey 'sliding'...

Looks great mate! I'm pretty tempted myself!

Nice pics, looks a good meet! Look forward to seeing the vid!

+1! I want to bodge together one of these and a stedicam of some sort. Hmmm...

I tried using an old skateboard and several pieces of wood at the weekend. Failed badly.

It was your bloody sample video that made me buy one :o I've wanted a new camera for ages tbh, just been putting it off. Already looking at adjustable ND filters...

Tell me about it. I shouldn't be allowed a lunch break at work, things get bought :o Cheers Pete - I forgot you have the D5000!

Stephen Brooks' stuff is brilliant. Will hopefully have a couple of example video's up this weekend at some point - time do dust off the old editing software :D

I don't think it's a gimmick at all tbh. SLR's are revolutionising the way video is shot. Until a few years back (when the d90 was launched iirc), the only way videographers were able to create images with such a shallow DOF was to buy a ridiculously expensive (not to mention massive) video...

LOL, as per facebook Greg - you've just bankrupted me for this month :D

Just payed £540ish mate. Next day delivery too, proper excited! LOL! Not telling the OH, I'm meant to be paying off a holiday this month as well as car insurance in August. FML indeed!

I may have sort of, a little bit, accidently bought it. Impulse buys FTW? :D

Manual focus mate - I'm used to that when shooting video anyway. Everyone I've spoke to that's used DSLR's with auto focusing with video (D7000, for example) has been less that impressed anyway, plus since the camera is constantly focusing it makes a f**king racket! I'd hope so mate! It's a...

Ideally mate, yes. Without trying to start a fanboy war, I just prefer them. Plus I cba looking for new lenses and selling all of my old ones - hassle!

Confirmed my thoughts, Scott! Cheers.

It does make a lot more sense mate, I agree. However, the only two that I can really find are the D90 (older, 720p) and D7000 (pricey, same image quality as the D5100, apparently). If anyone can find an alternative body for around £500 with a built in motor and 1080p HD, I'll buy it! On a...

Just running up a comparison of the two now mate, the 5100 seems to have far better technical features, whereas the pros for the 3100 are mainly that it's lighter and smaller...

I <3 my d40 tbh, taken some awesome images with it (IMO :o) over the past few years. Just think it's getting a bit long in the tooth now, especially it's ISO handling capabilities - or lack of. Jonny, my current lens' consist of 18-55, 55-200 and 50mm f/1.8. Unfortunately, the 5100 STILL...

I feel an impulsive purchase coming on... Been searching for an upgrade to the trusty old D40 for a while now, and it's always been between the D90 and D7000 for me. However, after looking into the D5100 this morning, it seems to be a decent compromise. It's a good £250 cheaper than the...

If you find it shakes in post production dude, I've always found putting a quick 10% crop then back to raw footage not only distracts away from the vibration, but looks cool too. Look forward to seeing pics!

Gliderail looks proper smooth mate! How did you make it?! I'm desperate to get back into doing video stuff!

Nice one Lukey boy, I've got a couple i need taking out :D

LOL! <3 Barryboys!

Any good Patrick? http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/2822168.htm Like Luke, I've been trawling PH since this thread was put up :o

Car sounds brilliant Andy! Jealous of those roads, too - think a road trip to Wales needs to be arranged :)
