Oct
The photographer captured the everyday life of a family using the full HD size of D-Movie. “The most impressive thing about using the D3100 was its high-quality movie images utilizing a softened background, one of the benefits of shooting movies with digital SLRs. Joyful family memories emerged from ordinary scenes by being reproduced more vividly in a larger frame. Also, easy selection of settings using Guide Mode, according to each scene allowed me to shoot as I had imagined.” This movie demonstrates the future movie-recording standard, D-Movie, capturing precious moments quickly and beautifully in full HD size.
