Defining what makes a cinema camera a cinema camera is tough these days. Theoretically, there is not one single answer. And even though we're largely in a digital era, some of our favorite filmmakers still shoot Super 16mm, 35mm, and even 65mm film, which could potentially mean that a motion picture film camera from the 1970s was used to shoot your favorite "cinematic" images today.
But if we restrict ourselves to digital cameras, we still have a tremendous variety, from the top of the exclusive market to the most mass-marketed.
To us, this conversation is really about what is the best digital camera that was purpose-designed specifically for creating images targeted for cinematic release, meaning theatrical motion pictures.
