I went to a film festival last night, and the movie I worked on was shot with a Sony FX1 HD 1080 camera, and I have to say the footage was not all that impressive, it looked like a home video. Two other films I watched looked like real film productions you see in holloywood, everything looked amazing. (I don't know what camera they used)
So why did the sony film look like c**p, was it the filmmaker or the camera? Did the other films look better because of the camera used?
I'm looking to buy a camera, I was thinking of getting that sony fx1 hd, but now I'm leaning towards the canon xl2 because if the lens and filters can be changed. Can anyone give me some insight on what makes a good camera...any links to videos made would be nice.
