Arriflex SR3 (Super 16mm)

Not sure who filmed this, I'd really love to know. I added the music. Lots of slow motion shots here.

i don't like the lines...

[Bluestarcinema]

@Trelli28 thats called interlacing. the film was scanned to VIDEO, than copied back to digital. dumbest shit ever.

[JurgisTamulis]

Why does 16 mm film has such high dynamic range?

[Bluestarcinema]

@JurgisTamulis because negative film records around 16 stops worth of dynamic range. You can only see 6 stops total at any given time, but this allows you to recover any amount of highlight detail. You can over expose a negative by 6 stops and recover skin tones in the highlights. I've verified this myself with vision 2 and 3, as well Kodaks Ektar 100 photography negative film (which is based off of motion picture emulsion technologies)

with digital you can recover about 2 stops.

@JurgisTamulis Cause it's magic, duh. What are you, new?

Also, adding to the "magic", film emulsion is made from part of the brain stems of newborns. Sadly, it takes a lot of them for each batch made by Kodak. Does Fuji do this? NO! No wonder their films are not nearly as good.

Sure, it's a shame about the babies. But damnit, FILM IS WORTH IT!

Babies...we thank you for your contribution to the world of cinema!

@Bluestarcinema interesting fact, those interlaced lines don't show up on standard def rear projection tv's (what would have been common back in the early days of video). The interlaced method was devised to put 24 fps film into video. If you took out an old vhs of a disney classic, scanned it to digital, and played it on your computer you would experience those same lines.

@rossawilson01 said "9.5mm is the focal length which is the distance between the rear of the lens and the point where the light focuses on the film plane."

In modern lenses a 9.5mm lens is not usually 9.5mm from the film plane. The focal length measurement is actually based on large-format still cameras (4x5, 8x10, etc.) that had very simple fixed lenses that were moved by a bellows.  The focal length is the distance from the film plane to the center of the lens when it is focused at infinity.

[TheHandOfFear]

@Bluestarcinema Sometimes lens manufacturers print the 35mm EQUIVALENT focal length on the lens.

For example a 50mm lens designed for a 35mm camera might yield the same field of view as a 50mm EQUIVALENT lens made for 16mm. But the 50mm equivalent is not actually 50mm, it's wider. I don't have the actual ratio in front of me, but for argument sake lets say it might actually be 24mm or something.

I think this is what you are referring to with Arri and Panavision lenses.
