[sketches in a moleskine]

I didn’t take much notice when Nikon then Canon released the first DSLR’s capable of shooting HD Video late last year. But recently more and more short films have started popping up with film like quality images and there now seems to be a growing trend amongst filmmakers who are taking advantage of the huge 16 x 24mm sensor chips found in the Nikon D90 and Canon 5D Mk II, consequently allowing anyone that shoots motion picture to produce a nice soft focus image with a very cinematic shallow depth of field. Here’s a short film I found titled ‘model/photographer’ which was shot on the Nikon D90 DSLR by filmmaker Zak Forsman of Sabi Pictures. He’s also shooting a feature on the same camera.
