I purchased this some 10 years ago & never got around learning/ using it properly & thoroughly. Now thinking of starting to learn it from scratch! Camera newbie here! Find a lot of settings daunting/ confusing though.
I'm here to. Cruising around to find decent settings for my 5100. The lens i use is somewhat odd. Its a Lomography Petzval 1:2.2 85mm. Love it for photos.
I still have a couple of Nikon lenses left from when I had my D90. My big guns are Canons and I have a couple of Sony mirrorless, but... I kind of have a desire to find an inexpensive Nikon body for those few lenses. LOL. I like the swing out, pivoting screen as none of my cameras have the swing out. Only tilt. I really should just sell those two Nikon lenses, but I still wouldn't mind having a Nikon in the fold. I shot Nikon mostly, and some Canon, back in my film days. So yep. Someone still checking out the D5100 in 2021.
+Wagner Oliveira I Honestly found this video very uselful and helpful. thank you for the information about movie recording and editing i didnt know about! im definately going to try some on ny d5100
while autofocusing the lens creates a lot of noise will this noise be added to the vedio.. If this is so its going to ruin all the mood .. Please reply I am about to buy this product ..
In this specific movie at the later end of the video, what editing software did you used? Does anyone know what editing software can do this type of movie. Glad if someone can tell.
Why is my camera not focussing automatically inspite of keeping at af-f. What am I do wrong. Also I am not able to edit video while pressing on ae l, aef button. Anything to be enabled in setting?
Can you timestamp the place where to make videos that blur the background, I want to make videos. Also, can you tell me how to connect a microphone and use it?
Wagner, I usually shoot film with video cameras. I want to migrate to reflex ONLY to get a narrower depth of field, which I love. What´s more important to own in order to achieve that? a LARGER LENS? or a BIGGER SENSOR? thanks
interesting. However was asking myself why the video wasn't posted in the HD quality format for better comparison. Am myself hesitating between Canon 600D and the Nikon 5100.
i like all your uploads about d5100 and i would like to know wats the tripod u show in this vid which is both good for shots and vids that has a fluid head..thanks
hi, trying to take vidoes for a youtube channel, i have this camera but what lens are you using, my auto focus on 300 mm makes this pinging noise that you hear in the video????
Unfortunately that is one of the downsides to the video aspect of the camera, I have had the same problem. In the video he films with the short lens (18mm-55mm) and the long lens (55mm-300mm).
@maz87efr you need to set your movie setting to "NTSC" to be able to record in 30fps... you must have somehow set the movie setting to "PAL" (where you only have 24fps and 25fps to choose from)
SIR, I AM INTERESTED IN FILM MAKING BUT AS OF NOW MY BUDGET IS ONLY RS. 50K. CAN U PLS HELD ME IN CHOSING THE DSLR FOR MAKING FILMS AND ALSO THROUGH SOME LIGHT ON WHAT IS WIDE SCREEN OPTION AND DOES IT EXIST IN ANY DSLR. THANKS IN ADVANCE
Great video! Thanks! But I have a question- I cant get how to put on pause while recording the video? All the time I try it, it just stops the video at all.
+Dexter Romena it does. You can have a firmware hack for it. Trust me, if you can do it, just do it. You get complete control of aperture and shutter speed, and your short seems to be even more cinematic.
i could film lightningstorm with it, but the thing of that is that it doesnt get BULB mode to fotograph the lightning when you filming, besides of that, yeah, it sounds awesome.
mannoman actually, i did have bulb and i use it now. you can check out my channel and see in my thunderstorm video's some pictures. also my coverpictures are always pictures of lightning i previously caught. you can also check my channel on facebook (also called Neta Bolt) but its in my birthlanguage like in my discriptions too; its belgium so i hope you can read and speak dutch. Subscribe to me if you like thunderstorms or just for fun. anyway, thanks to tell this anyways. i would have done that if i didn't had bulbmode with a remote.
Ali Shehu Odd because I have a D5100 and have had one for quite a while now and shoot all the video for my channel with it, and Auto Focus works for me.

I found my mom’s old D5100 and she let me use it for my TH-cam channel, this was a big help to find out more about my camera

I also have a Nikon D5100 and Im learning a lot from you.
Outstanding tutorial, thanks a lot!

while autofocusing the lens creates a lot of noise will this noise be added to the vedio..
If this is so its going to ruin all the mood ..
Please reply I am about to buy this product ..
I learned a lot. Thank you so much
In this specific movie at the later end of the video, what editing software did you used? Does anyone know what editing software can do this type of movie. Glad if someone can tell.
Thanks so much , great , great tutorial ! Very helpful ! Peace out
Can you shoot in slow motion on this camera?
How do you set the AE-L / AF-L button to do the same video editing tool your camera does? cant find it in the manual...
This video is only 480 p..???
2021 have this video for training
these shots are completely over exposed
I agree, but at least it looks good! :D
what kind of lenses are those?
I have Nikon D5100 but if I'm using it to do video the image always dark please can you explain for me.
ouahhh my nikon ( in urope ) don' t get 30 fps, only 24 or 25 !!!! why ??
Christian Makkoun You have to change from PAL to NTSC mode in settings.
SturL Standard video/TV mode for Europe, PAL, is based on 25 fps. US mode, NTSC, is 30 fps.
thanks to everyone ! I'm stupid....
+Christian Makkoun in US you get 30 fps not in Europe. But its better that you work in 24. Its much more cinematic and filmlike.
+Christian Makkoun PAL is the European framerate standard, 25 FPS. Go into settings and change to NTSC for 24 and 30 fps
great very useful ..thanks sir
2023 June
wealth of information in one video. thanks a lot!
This video was such a great big help, I was so confused and this helped so much thank you very much!!!!!!
Awesome video!! Thanks heaps!
Why is my camera not focussing automatically inspite of keeping at af-f. What am I do wrong. Also I am not able to edit video while pressing on ae l, aef button. Anything to be enabled in setting?
Ronin R This cameras autofocus in live view is trash I would suggest a canon t7i 77D 80D 70D sl2 these cameras have the best autofocus on any dslr
Very helpful for a beginner like me. Thank you so much ^.^
what was the microphone he was using
How did you focus at 3:13? Manual or Automatic? Because, if I´d do it automatically it zooms in and out and its not really great...
Can you timestamp the place where to make videos that blur the background, I want to make videos.
Also, can you tell me how to connect a microphone and use it?
which lens did you shoot this video with?
It's a color select feature. He choose the amber color from the cup. It's a neat effect.
Wagner, I usually shoot film with video cameras. I want to migrate to reflex ONLY to get a narrower depth of field, which I love. What´s more important to own in order to achieve that? a LARGER LENS? or a BIGGER SENSOR? thanks
Does the tripod goes with the camera when you buy it? please reply ASAP
What camera was used to film this?
+Juan Soto L Hope is sarcasm... D5100
lmao it was
interesting. However was asking myself why the video wasn't posted in the HD quality format for better comparison. Am myself hesitating between Canon 600D and the Nikon 5100.
Woow nice kamera
A video about shooting in 1080p is in 480p? 🤔
Is the cd came with the camera?
i like all your uploads about d5100 and i would like to know wats the tripod u show in this vid which is both good for shots and vids that has a fluid head..thanks

Veryhelpful , Thanks
great work !!!!
very helpful video!!! maybe you can help some more.-) - i always hear the sound of the moving lens on my videos- how can i solve this?
Same with me...how did you solve the problem?
@maz87efr you need to set your movie setting to "NTSC" to be able to record in 30fps... you must have somehow set the movie setting to "PAL" (where you only have 24fps and 25fps to choose from)
is nikon d5100 have autofocus in videoshootind mode
niCe..very helpful man!
very like ... thanks for sharing
How can I switch off the auto focus sound when my camera is on AF-F mode?
JoepieGames you cannot switch off auto focus sound. That sound is caused by inbuilt motor. You can avoid auto focus sound by attaching external mic.
How do you get music for movies like this?
perfect. . keep it up sir. . this video helps me a lot, thanks =) more power. ..
how come mine only allows 25fps?
SIR, I AM INTERESTED IN FILM MAKING BUT AS OF NOW MY BUDGET IS ONLY RS. 50K. CAN U PLS HELD ME IN CHOSING THE DSLR FOR MAKING FILMS AND ALSO THROUGH SOME LIGHT ON WHAT IS WIDE SCREEN OPTION AND DOES IT EXIST IN ANY DSLR. THANKS IN ADVANCE
Wow!! Great job. Thanks....
Great job dude ....!
Great videos! Keep it up!
what is the origin of your nikon D5100? made in japan? BTW, your post is in deed very good.
Hi, What would stop the ISO from changing? While yours was adjusting mine wasn't, and it wasn't on lock mode either.
You have to use full manual.
Theres an AE lock button you can use in the semi auto modes.
+Brandon Pereira FULL MANUAL. Take control of your D5100. Don't let the camera do the thinking for you. Think for the visuals, for the camera.
Great video! Thanks!
But I have a question- I cant get how to put on pause while recording the video? All the time I try it, it just stops the video at all.
Olga Basova

How much ksa riyal please I need it ?
Thanks For That Great HELP!
does the d5100 dont have a manual movie settings??
+Dexter Romena it does. You can have a firmware hack for it. Trust me, if you can do it, just do it. You get complete control of aperture and shutter speed, and your short seems to be even more cinematic.
how come when i shoot my camera quality is like grainy.
this is the best
That's cool! I can take vids with any mode, while a Canon just can dial to movie mode!
Excellent tutorial.
Awesome tutorials bro :)
awesome thank you so much!
thank you for the great tips !!
i could film lightningstorm with it, but the thing of that is that it doesnt get BULB mode to fotograph the lightning when you filming, besides of that, yeah, it sounds awesome.
Neta Bolt Try a shutter speed setting (S) at 1/60.

very usefull sir
my d5100 only has 25fps?????
waw ! tnx alot
this is not really ...when I record with my D5100 and autofocus does not work like on this your vide... please don't lie people
Ali Shehu Odd because I have a D5100 and have had one for quite a while now and shoot all the video for my channel with it, and Auto Focus works for me.
But how..in the ovjectiv u put automatik focus or off
Ali Shehu I did exactly as this video showed last night and I was able to use Subject Tracking Focus. Watch the video again.
+Ali Shehu - first thing, first. NO AUTOFOCUS and NO AUTO-MODE. Its gonna take some time to get hold of Manual mode. Practice, practice, practice.
you more like a teacher with wise advise :)
go into the menu > system and put the setting from pal to ntsc then you can film with 30fps
great tips !
various lens like 18-55 or 55-200 or 300 :)
