So Cannes accept 16mm? One of you said that the camera did not matter that much, so I change iso, aparture, etc. on the lenses? It's important that the camera I choose is sturdy and robust though because of the artic climate: -20 degrees celsius during winter :)

Thanks for the applause. Might save for an Arri. How difficult is it to sync sound with the Arri then? If I'm going to shoot my project on a DSLR first, then I think that ought to be a test shoot: Because I would not want the actors to do something great during that shooting.

I'll have to look into camera renting. It may not be possible since I live in Northern-Norway and all the companies who rent out cameras are based in the southern part of the country. DoP's are not an option either. I will look into the eclair though.

Hello, I'm a 16 year old indie-filmmaker from Norway, and this is my problem: I have used a DSLR (Canon 550D) for short-films the last two years, before that I used a JVC camcorder and before that again a Canon DV camcorder. I'm not happy with any of these. Digital seems to clean to me, and it never satisfies me visually. Therefore I've made the decision to go back to film. I want to shoot 16mm or 35mm, depending on what Cannes would accept in their short-film festival (I'm writing a script right now). I've been looking at the Krasnogorsk 3, the Bolex H-16 and a Kinor-camera. I don't know what to choose. - My budget is around 500 USD. - 16mm or 35mm (depends on the Cannes rules). - I want to be able to sync sound from a separate sound recorder (I'll use a clapper). - This camera should also be fit for cold/hard weather and long shoots. - I want a quality that equals that of “Fellini’s Roma” or “Wild Strawberries”
