In the camera menu under Picture Control you can set the jpeg to Neutral, Vivid, etc. The camera shoots jpeg files in video. Do the Picture Control settings effect the video?

Hi Jerry,
I would just try it and see. The type of lighting will react differently to different settings.

Yes. It is recommended that a bland profile is used or created to add flexibility during the editing. If you are not planning to do editing then pick a profile that you find pleasing.

I have a D7100 and If I use the vivid profile while shooting video, I get unacceptably high contrast. Since I edit all my footage, I use a "reduced" or the "standard"profile, and add the color grading in post. for editing I use Cyberlink Power director 12, Hitfilm 2 ultimate and Cineform ( free program from Gopro)

Since ( to best of my knowledge) DSLR's do not internally shoot video in raw, White balance is extremely important.

Thanks, this is just the kind of feedback I was looking for.
