So I have a technical question about cinematography?
So i am confused about this: is there any difference between shooting 16mm film in a Scoopic camera and shooting 16mm film in an arriflex sr?
Is the movie going to film better assuming that both cameras shot the same objects at the same time of day and with the same exposure, filters,etc?
Or the film in the arri is going to look better than the scoopic because arri is supposed to be a better camera?
I understand than in video the brand of the camera can make a difference, but in film the cameras are transporting the same kind of film. Why should the result be different? Please help me on this one. Thank you.
The biggest difference will be the lens- a good piece of glass is essential to good images. I’ve never used a scoopic- but it has a fixed lens I believe. Of course Canon is known for making good glass so it shouldn’t be a huge deal, but the Arri can accommodate PL, Bayonet or C mount lens- so the SR can take really any lens in the world, so in addition to more options with primes/ zooms etc, you can find what’s right for you’re project.
Another issue might be the film transport- one thing that made the SRs so popular was their great engineering, which gave the film a smoother, less shaky look and was less prone to registry errors.
Some smaller issues might be camera noise- the SR is pretty quite, and maintenance- since the Arri is a professional cam, chances are your model has been serviced regularly by a licensed tech, since the scoopic was a more “prosumer” model- you might want to check the service records. One reason I hate shooting Super16- you always have a cam that’s 30 years old and no clue as to whether its been taken care of properly.
All in all, the SR is a more professional cam that can be more easily modified with accessories to fit your shooting scenario, but I don’t know if this will justify the extra rental cost.
If there’s a huge difference in the cost, and you like the feel of the Canon, just use that- I doubt it will be a very noticeable difference, but that’s why you always do a camera test.
