  1. And if I MUST and if I DO try not to break it "Q"....what would be the visual effect, what films have been done this way?
  2. Thank you all again. Very useful. In answer to Mitch, I simply want to find a way of using a movie camera that enables me to record what I normally see in my SLR viewfinder as I follow/track a subject. I am certainly inexperienced and have only had experience up to now with prosumer digital video cameras and the huge depth of field they give is the opposite of what I want to see- and never see usually as I nearly always use the largest aperture available. SO...basically I want to be able to film what I see through a 35mm camera lense fluidly and with ease of movement. I have posted a similar question on the 16mm forum thinking that that might be a compromise solution. I would have the depth of field problem but to a lesser degree.
  3. Thanks all, that's what I needed to know! Would still be interested to know of any matching pairs of films though ie ektachrome VS and 5285. And what sort of results does cross processing give?
  4. Thank you. Has anyone thought of compiling this information in one place or on a website? Wouldn't it be a good thing? :rolleyes:
  5. I do need sound sync by the way.
  6. Thanks all and excuse my ignorance Laurent.A but why are aaton's so good hand held? Do they have an internal steadying system or something?
  7. Thanks everyone for the help. I have been away for a day hence the late reply. I was hoping to hear somebody recommend some sort of lightweight steadying device rather than hand held options. Is there anything commercially available? Is the steadicam junior appropriate for any 35mm cameras?
  8. Hi all, I am looking for the most lightweight and flexible steadying system to be used in conjunction with an Arri 16 sr3. So no tripod but enough steadying to produce fluid movement without obvious bumps! Any ideas?
  9. Hi All, I am very interested to know what people would recommend. I want to produce a steadicam effect but also want a lot of flexibility and agility. I do not want to strain my back and wonder what the most lightweight flexible system would be. Thanks
  10. Hi Max, it always seems to be you who knows what filmstock was used! I have been trying to find a website or something where this information is available..any ideas? I have been trying for quite a while now with no real success. Most of my information has come from you on this site! Thanks Paul
  11. Sure...I believe you stated that the emulsion of Ektachrome 100D is almost the same as 5285 apart from the Rem-jet backing obviously. So I thought I could do initial film tests for 5285 using ektachrome 100D and C41. Is this possible and if so I would like to know of other motion picture emulsions that have a C41 still camera equivalent...particularly colour negative ones. I hope that is clear, thanks Paul
  12. Thanks both! So does that mean that my plan to do some extra cheap preliminary tests using the still film equivalent of Kodaks motion picture films in an SLR camera and developing in C41 is not viable? Any ideas? Or can I only get familiar with motion picture films through expensive Motion Picture lab tests?
  13. David Hello, can you help me. I posted a few posts back wondering about other matching motion picture and still 35mm films. Any help much appreciated, thanks Paul
