We have just got our new 35mm adaptor and had to go out and get some test footage.  Basically the adaptor helps create the look of film using video.  The benefit of this is not only much nicer looking footage but also huge cost savings over traditional film cameras.

We tried this out in a forest to see how the adaptor and lenses would work in places that are not that well lit.  I have to say that I am pretty impressed with the results.  The edit was thrown together in under an hour with no colour correction or grading at all.

With the adapter the colours have come out more natural and organic than ever, and you can see the shallow depth of field (main subject in focus while other things out of focus) that can be achieved.

We also added an external monitor and follow focus to help with manual focusing.  This will take a few shoots to get used to as you can see form the video but from the first test it seems like this will take no time at all.  I’m looking forward to future projects using this piece of equipment!
