APRIL 2008

23 May 2008 update:

Just thought i would let you know that the new Bond film didn't shot anything in 65mm [shame] but used a Dalsa 4k Origin digital camera for one scene. Roberto Schaefer ASC wanted to shoot using Hawk Anamorphics but was not allowed to by the visual fx people they said post production would take to long. Its been shot Super 35 using Arricams and Zeiss Ultra Prime lenses, apart from a short sequence where they used 8 Dalsa Origin 4K cameras.

Meant to say before love your site good luck
