The Great Camera Shootout is back for 2011 with a brand new breed of cameras and a fresh set of challenges. Our three part documentary follows Robert Primes, ASC CSC and his large scale, technical Single Chip Camera Evaluation (SCCE).In this series, you’ll see side by side comparisons of the Arri Alexa, Sony F-35, Sony F3, Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 7D, Canon 1D Mark IV, Nikon D7000, Weisscam HS-2, Phantom Flex, Panasonic AG-AF100, RED ONE M-X and 35mm Kodak 5213 and 5219 film. Robert Primes brought in consultants, specialists and technicians from various areas of the motion picture industry to design a series of 12 tests and “On-Set-Challenges” to push these cameras to the limit. Each camera faced in-depth analysis in regard to sharpness, low light sensitivity, exposure, latitude, highlight detail, shadow detail, color quality, flesh tone reproduction, compression losses and shutter artifacts.
