Checking out the buttons you need to shoot video with the Nikon D3400 In this Nikon D3400 video from Camerawize we look at Nikon D3400 Video buttons. So once you have changed the menu settings you can start looking through the camera to see what you are actually seeing when you want to shoot a video. In order to do that you have to press the LiveView button at the back. There are two quite important buttons here for when you are in LiveView and one is the info button on the top and the other is the i button which is down on the bottom left hand corner next to the screen and these serve very useful purposes. So when you switch initially to LiveView, you will see a lot of information going along the top of the screen. Now, just because you have switched on to LiveView, this is not yet on to video mode and so a lot of the information is, in fact, for stills. So, for example, you will have what mode it is in, whether it is on auto or manual, or aperture-priority. You will have something referring to whether the flash will come on or not you will have the shutter single shutter or continuous shutter you will have the auto focus settings. You will have the picture control setting the white balance and whether the stills are going to be large and fine JPEGs etc. If you press the info button at the top once then you will now be in video mode and that tells you less information but more relevant information about what you have actually got a setting for video which will give you the frame rate, it will give you the autofocus settings it will give you the picture control and the white balance and at the bottom it will also give you the microphone levels. I would recommend really that you either leave it on AUTO or you leave it on MANUAL because when it comes to video modes you either have an automatic mode, which essentially does everything for you, or you switch it over to manual where you can have much more control. I am going to switch it on to Auto initially so that we can have a look through that. So having switched the camera on then I go into menus and if I go into the SHOOTUNG MENU and at the bottom option there are MOVIE SETTINGS. These are the only settings which are specifically for shooting video and they are all in one place. If I go into that then I have various options - frame size and frame rate, movie quality. the microphone, wind noise reduction and manual movie settings. Lets start from the beginning and have a look at frame size and frame rate. If I click on there there is a long list of different frame rates and frame sizes. I just want to take a couple of minutes to explain where they come from and how important they actually are. OK so 1920 x 1080 is Full HD and is probably about the best quality you can shoot on a DSLR at the moment outside of 4k, which is the revolutionary new system which actually although what people are talking about it not many people are using. Certainly in terms of social media - YouTube or Vimeo or any of those platforms - they are more than happy to take 1920 x 1080 and in fact they are more than happy to take also the one down towards the bottom here which is 1280 x 720. 1280 x 720 is called HD and 1920 x 1080 is called Full HD, so they are the frame sizes. If you like they they reflect the similar parameters to the file size of a still image so 1920 x 1080 is larger than 1280 x 720. Then you get on to the frame rate. Now you have various frame rates here and they are different for different reasons. This Nikon D3400 video from Camerawize is one of a series.
