Eclair Camera What Kind Of Camera Would You Choose Provided The Money? An HD (EX1 ) Or A Super 16mm Film Camera?

What kind of camera would you choose provided the money? An HD (EX1 ) or a super 16mm film camera? - eclair camera

Moi? Well, I like the EX1, with the prices of the cards and the lack of records, but I think to get a super 16mm (Aaton or Eclair ACL, are not loud). But I would like to hear other opinions. I want it for weddings.

I understand totally where you are ... even with the ongoing digital revolution, digital cameras can not with the presentation of the film ... But it is inevitable that eventually even obsolete in celluloid, it's just a matter of time believe, probably much later than most.

The EX1 is a good step towards the demonstration of digital cameras, since it is the only camera that can under 10,000 U.S. dollars, the shoot in full 1080i / p without pixel shift or compress (like comptetors HDV and DVCPRO). It also has image sensors larger than a prosumer camera: Three 1 / 2 "CMOS sensors give you a professional DOF similar to 2 / 3 ".... In addition, a device that .... in his own revolutionary The only setback, as you already mentioned, the price of media cards, the somewhat alarming decline of 3 million MiniDV cassettes.

Super 16mm is a good way. There is a feeling similar to that of 35 mm without the loved one. It's a little grain, and a deeper DOF though. 16mmbe used to support under standard low-budget filmmakers, but now can not see them too often, like a digital high-definition camera was almost impassable 16mm

Getting to my point of view (Sorry for being so long), the EX1 to be like a lot of money in advance, but the long term is much much cheaper than film. Super 16mm, but 35mm is not, is to buy very expensive. It is also very expensive to develop. We also expect that the lab receives your images you do when the material was or if you need to shoot again ask myself, there is no instant gratification, we have learned to love with digital photography. .. With regard to the expenditure to support the EX1 SxS cards for the necessary (or the time are infinitely reusable and) I am not exaggerating. And .... the media SxS cards are much cheaper than processed maybe 15-20 rolls of 16mm Super There is also a digital film to examine the process of digitization, as well .... It is not cheap.

Thus, there is no price comparison: Digital is where & # 039, s on .... When it comes to aesthetics, but, but that's another story ...

Side note: If you are reducing the cost of digital production, I suggest you look at the Scarlet, as in Q1 '09. It is estimated that approximately $ 3000, so that now 1 / 2 price of the EX1. Requires supports CF cards that are a bit expensive, but cheaper than SxS media. But the thing is that Scarlet is better than .... EX1 general 3K with RAW shooting mode, well above the 1080p resolution, which is in the EX1. HD is a euphemism here we talk of ultra-high definition. It also has a large 2 / 3 "CMOS sensor and shoot up to 120fps, and many other fun things that we do not even know!

But if you really spend achival concerned, it is probably safer to have an HDV camera .... Economy is ... not as good as the cameras in the solid state as the EX1 or scarlet fever, but also for weddingsPretty good. The JVC HD110 and HD200, and the Canon XH-A1, Sony Z1 few beautiful.

Hope that helps a little ...
