D-Movie Mode

D-Movie is capable of making sound movies up to five minutes in length in high definition mode, up to 20 in VGA mode and saving them in three different motion JPEG formats: 320 x 216 pixels, 640 x 424 pixels and 1280 x 720 pixels.

The camera's Live View capability makes D-Movies possible. Live View is essentially a video image, played back to the LCD monitor in near real-time for viewing. D-Movie mode records that image to the camera's memory card.

D-Movies are enhanced by the fact that they are made using NIKKOR lenses, which provide an incredible choice of focal lengths as well as legendary optical quality. They also benefit from an image sensor much larger than a typical camcorder, resulting in higher image quality and exceptional high ISO performance during low-light shooting.

The brief pieces in the Media Center to the right will give you a quick look at video captured with Nikon's D-Movie Mode. To see three, stunning mulit-media presentations produced by Nikon pros Ami Vitale, Bill Frakes and Corey Rich, click on the following links:
