I agree with you about 35mm adapters, Nick!

I think they've become the Flavor of the Month, and a lot of filmmakers are over-using them. It's one thing to use a very shallow depth of field when it's absolutely necessary for a shot (which isn't that often versus the dop you get from a 2/3" chip), and it's another thing to try to shout "Look, look! My little 1/3" camera can do everything the big boys can do!" Plus, as you say, those adapters can hurt the image in other ways....

Very nice footage, by the way. And thanks for not indulging in another Flavor of the Month effect, which is adding a vignette to the footage, and over-colorizing it in Magic Bullet, just because you can. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
