I get your point Barry--it's actually an illustration of the Papert school of cinematography (if I may!!);it's not about the numbers or the theory, it's the image itself that counts.

Remember that by moving the subject back and zooming in, thus maintaining the same image size, the DoF characteristic remains the same. You only get a shallower depth of field if you go telephoto AND...

Dan:

Certainly it wasn't impossible or even hard to shoot high-speed, but I think it's still a valid distinction to make; Arri 3's or, later, 435's are not exotic birds and may even be part of a...

I've used everything from old Zeiss Superspeeds to the Cooke S4's, and haven't seen any real problems yet--there were a couple of really funky lenses that I came across that vignetted a little bit...

To further hammer this point home, I've still got some XL1 (pre-XL1s, pre-Mini35) footage on my reel nestled between 35mm and 16mm footage, and I wouldn't have it there if I felt it didn't hold up...

I would have to say that 60 fps can be deceiving--certainly not enough to shoot in "bullet-time", say, but makes a significant difference to human activities, action scenes etc. And with...

I think we should be careful in assuming based on this footage that the camera is obviously superior to other offerings; I'd like to think that if I had been given a Z1 with the Mini35 I'd...
