I KNOW the answer to this must be somewhere, but I can't seem to find it. Sorry.

I haven't used my DSLR for movies in a LONG time. I've forgotten where to start!
That is, aperture, shutter, or manual mode? I seem to think it was manual mode...but what is the desirable shutter speed to start with? Other guidelines to help me get back into this?

Thanks.

(I edited this...should be 5dMkIII, not mkII)

I don't get it??
I'm quite experienced with stills, but my video background includes a short demo about 3 or 4 years ago and about 5 videos. And that was with my "old camera."
I know this is basic, but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for here or on YouTube. I must be looking for the wrong thing?!?!

Basics--AV, TV, Manual, preferred shutter speed. That's about it to get me started.
Thx.
