Looks a lot worse than if they had shot on real film but of course real film is more expensive. So why do it all? Is there some cost benefit or is it totally for artistic reasons? [Link] |

Transfer to film is not a factor in this case, if the transfer were done correctly you would notice almost no difference between the master disk and the film copy. |

| zambi Senior Member 1451 Posts 3/10 | For example, most of the gonzo companies used to all have that live video look. Now they all seem to be going for this film look. And like someone above said the quality varies a lot. I'm pretty sure that look doesn't come directly from the camera used by comes from post-production. And like someone above said bad lighting is often the most notably problem. The resolution looks reduced also. |
