Well, it's a bit of an emotional argument, isn't it? When you take that frame from "Barry Lyndon" and subtract the beautiful costumes, the candles, the candlelight, the f/0.7 Zeiss lens, etc. and reduce it all down to just the photochemical element -- the 5254 100T film stock used to shoot it, pushed one stop -- are you suggesting that digital cinematography cannot achieve the quality of that stock?
hi David,
in 2015, i challenge you to find digital to match Barry because i have not seen it and yep - like Gaugin shocking Paris with an apple. Art is emotional. Technology is mental. Regards, Scott.

Beyond resolution, beyond curve and dynamic range. Can digital do this?
Show me some digital that can grade that well.
(And never tell me that it is 'because we are used to it'. This is how my eyes that are connected to my brain process light. It's human.)
The sharp resolution is there but it's so incredibly cold. I'm really over the super sharpness of digital. The benjamin button script is an achievement but I hope that we get beyond the artificiality of ole digital.
Certain things will always work like the smoke down in the theatre shot but I do not agree with this new aesthetic.
I agree that Zodiac is some of the best digital I have seen.
With regards,
Scott
Why do pop music videos from the 90s and early 2000s look so different from those in later times?

Two reasons
1) most of the money I. Music is yesterday's news
2) these pieces are begun and completed digitally.
Thanks
Scott.
