The nominations of the 93rd Academy Awards have been announced. Our cinematography survey focuses on the Best Picture and Cinematography categories. Here’re the cameras used to shoot them. Opinion: We’re disappointed not to explore film cameras in that list. Well, except the mighty Aaton Penelope which was the only film representative in that prestige list.

Well, this is kind of unfortunate to reveal a significant reduction in the film cameras compared to the previous year (read: The Cameras Behind Oscar 2020: Film Made a Comeback and RED Enters the List). However, there’s might be a logical explanation for that, since those films were made mainly for streaming, rather than be screened on the big canvas. Shooting for Netflix is not exactly the same as shooting for a real movie theater. We can conclude that this reduction was caused due to the COVID restrictions which forced movie theaters to be removed from the entertainment equation. Sure, this year was very different and unprecedented to filmmakers and moviegoers. On the other hand, those films were planned a couple of years ago, before the pandemic hit the industry. If so, are we witnessing a significant dissipation of the ‘good and old’ film stock? Personally, I hope not, since film will still get you the best image quality. Nevertheless, the math never lies.

What do you think about this hypothesis? Comment below.
