After again speaking with Nikon, and further testing with my camera firmware C1.00 L1.006 - it appears impossible to externally record full HD from the D5200.   I've connected the camera to a Black Magic Intensity Pro HDMI capture card - result: 1920x1080 file with black bars around a size reduced image.   Connected to a Grass Valley HD Storm card yields exactly the same results.   Viewing on an external monitor produces the same results.   It looks like this entire thread is based on a myth - unless of course you like working with silly cropped images.   I'm in conversation with Atomos, who make both the Ninja and Samuri Blade capture devices. They say that they are having success, but maybe this is at 720.... as they quote the D800 as a working source, which does say in its specification that it has full, clean HDMI output expressly for external recording.   Paul :-)

Hi everyone,   I have a new D5200, and am having an issue getting FULL FRAME 1080 out of the hdmi socket - yes I get a cropped 1080 which needs post processing to bring it to full frame, thereby losing quality.   I've read all the above thread about camera settings, I'm simply not able to get a full raster image.   I spoke to Nikon, they say the camera has this as a limitation - so, can someone explain this to me:   Does the Nikon D5200 output 1920x1080 via the HDMI socket at full raster? Yes or No, and how did you achieve this?   thanks    Paul :-)
