Well, that makes a lot more sense, thanks for setting me straight. My faith in random film reviewers is suitably reduced.

Googled a bit more and found this--

HK: Yes. We used almost all natural lighting and he shot in Super 16, with the Aaton.

The "hand-held digital camcorder" was a Super16 filmcamera...

Anyone know what camera Yutaka Yamasaki used to shoot the new documentary-style film from Hirokazu Kore-eda, "Dare mo Shiranai" (English title: "Nobody Knows")? I was very impressed with the latitude and depth of field of what several sources are calling a "hand-held digital camcorder"--not to mention the film itself, which was beautiful. Was it all available light?

I also wondered about the triangular bokeh apparent in some scenes. I don't recall seeing these before, what would cause them?
