All you can do is be upbeat and positive, regardless of what's going on, even on a cold wet day, with the rain running down your neck.

Dry ice tends to lie in a layer.

No, grain size is a factor because of the smaller S16 neg and if you want a really shallow DoF. You can have a visually great S16 film, but they are different.

Don't confuse VHS with D-VHS. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-VHS Mini DV took over on the camera side, so HDV would be the equivalent for HD on camcorders.
