I've had my Nikon D3100 for 3 months and I've read every book and direction's manual and i still can't figure out how to get to the video camera, i've only been looking for the video camera for about 2 days so if anyone knows or has one please help me!

On the mode select thing ontop of the camera, where you can select modes from Manual, Auto, Portrait, etc, etc, there should be a little icon that somewhat looks like a film. Just go through all of the modes to find the video camera.

How difficult can it be?

I downloaded the Nikon D3100 Reference Manual from Nikon.com… It took less than 1 minute to find and download it.

Nikon D3100 Reference Manual…
Page 1 is the title name (D3100 Reference Manual)
Page 2 shows you 'Where to Find It'
Page 3 shows you a Table of Contents, where you will see listed… Recording and Viewing Movies
Next to that is the page number (45). I then turned to page 45 and… Voila!
I now know how to record movies using the D3100.

Total time taken to download and find out how to record movies on the D3100… Approx. 1 minute 10 secs.

So, why would it take YOU 2 days to NOT find out how to record movies on your D3100?
