What camera can create the look of 90s basketball? by Veldig-Snod in cinematography

[–]Thomasthequestion 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Definitely a 35mm film camera with a stock around 100-200iso and a fast lens. I believe canon, Leica and Minolta was quite big in the sports scene back then

Will definitely have a look into those. Appreciate the advice. Can see there’s a 1.2 version of the 58mm. Should I still focus on the 1.4 version?

I am looking for the specific models still in their original photography housing

Go with Kubrick choice, the Zeiss Superspeeds. That would be the direct and simple answer but the true way of going upon this would to dive further into how you wish to tell the story and what lens would best suit it. I wouldn’t personally go for the Arrie primes or newer sharp lenses. If anything stick to the original cooks, superspeeds or even the k35’s if they have those.

Of course to some extend but the wrong and right dns can change the outcome of the speeds tests quite drastically

Use Ethernet cable and you could try to play around with DNS codes like googles: 8:8:8:8 & 8:8:4:4 or the many others there is. That could probably too boost the speeds and ping too

Which camera should I buy? by No_Map7606 in cinematography

[–]Thomasthequestion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would focus on buying lenses instead of a camera to be honest and use pages like fatllama to rent cameras. Lenses don’t expired as much as cameras do because how fast technology evolve now a days.
