      @@user-co6ww2cm9kwell sensors and film isn’t the same thing so you guys are comparing apples to oranges😂 both wrong.
      Film has fairly large grain. Especially old film. So each “pixel” might take up more than one spot if you put it over the same pixel grid as the modern camera. So technically the sensor is better but that’s compared to film of the era.

      A good film camera would’ve been better for the project in my opinion since it would have that slight natural grain adding warmth and be just as clear. I’ve always been amazing by good quality films ability to catch every small detail

      The cameras are that way to save on video storage space, since they may need to save footage to be studied, it would require a lot more in storage to save hours of hi def video than it would to store lower quality video.

    It’s so odd. The scenery is all correct, the camera FOV is correct, but the image is so sharp, and I think the luminance range (not a professional term) is more correct and linear.
    Edit: I did watch the video, I know what caused most or all of these differences. I’m just mentioning them anyway. Nowhere in this comment did I say it was a mystery. “It’s so odd” refers to the “feel” of the images when comparing them to the originals. If I stomped on these feelings with the purely objective knowledge of what caused the differences, I think I would be missing the point of this video. It’s art. It’s not a science experiment, it’s art. Let me enjoy.

      Waste not want not. I once had the threads snap on my lens protector. My only choice was to delicately crack, the plastic on the protector and save the lens. This is also on an older camera from the 60s or 70s.

    I love the story lenses tell. Even though this was a digital format the esthetic from old WW1 photos carries though from the lens characteristics. It’s like when I watch an older indie film (90’s and before) and I see a triangular bokeh and it screams Zeiss super speeds.
