Hey all... My name is Shaheryar Ahmed and I am primarily a director writer. Along with this I am most of the times a cinematographer too... I own a Sony HVR Z1... I shoot HDV... I happen to know how to light a scene properly... I know how to color correct and grade my scene too...
I saw 35mm adapters a year ago... I think it was a Letus... I have never used it... Im making a feature film as a thesis project (I am a filmmaking student). I thought having a 35mm adapter would really make my film look 'film'. But it is EXPENSIVE. I saw a couple of DIY tutorials on making one but a lot of people I know said it is not worth it. DIY that is. I can't afford a letus or redrock.
A friend of mine who is a cinematographer said that don't get in the hassle of 35mm adapter. Light your scenes properly and grade them. Even in this way you can do so much!
What should I do?
