I've been doing a lot of research on this one and have only suceeded in turning full circle. Why does film look like film. I've heard replies like.. resolution ... FPS.... and filmstock, but I've seen a lot of people out there doing film like productions on DV. They must have found the answer to this. even more so the question should be...How do I make my DV look like film? I've compared with some of the best cameras 16mm 8mm DV cam Mini DV. and only 16mm has come close without modifying the footage. Isnt there a way to make Mini DV look more like film? Not so overly crisp as usuall as mini DV but soft ,even and film like.
