Camera

The camera body affects the overall color tone, contrast, and texture of your image. Each camera has a distinct color science that shapes how the final result feels.

Tip: think of the camera body as the personality of your image. ARRI feels warm and natural, RED feels sharp and punchy, and IMAX feels massive and immersive.

Camera
What it does and when to use it

ARRI Alexa Mini LF

Natural skin tones and soft highlights. Great for cinematic narrative work and high-end film looks

RED Red V-Raptor

Sharp, high-contrast detail. Ideal for action, commercials, and crisp digital cinema

Sony Venice 2

Rich colors with strong low-light performance. Works well for drama, indie films, and moody scenes

Panavision

Warm, classic Hollywood feel. Best for studio-style productions and traditional film aesthetics

Blackmagic

Filmic look with good dynamic range. A solid choice for indie films, music videos, and short films

IMAX

Massive scale and extreme detail. Use for landscapes, spectacle shots, and immersive visuals

Arriflex 16SR3

Grainy 16mm film texture. Perfect for vintage, documentary, or retro aesthetics

Lens

The lens shapes how light enters the camera and affects qualities like bokeh, flares, and sharpness. There are three main types to know:

  • Spherical: clean and natural, what most people picture when they think of a photo

  • Anamorphic: wider and more cinematic, with horizontal lens flares and oval-shaped bokeh

  • Experimental/Vintage: artistic effects like dreamy blur, swirly bokeh, or selective focus

Tip: spherical for clean, anamorphic for cinematic, experimental for artistic.

Lens
What it does and when to use it

Cooke S4 (Spherical)

Warm and smooth with subtle bokeh. Known for natural skin tones and the classic "Cooke Look"

Panavision (Anamorphic)

Widescreen cinematic look with horizontal lens flares and oval bokeh. The classic movie feel

Canon K-35 (Spherical)

Warm, slightly soft, vintage character. Great for retro or nostalgic looks

Hawk V-Lite (Anamorphic)

Modern anamorphic with controlled flares and clean widescreen framing. Balances vintage and modern

Zeiss Ultra (Spherical)

Sharp, precise, and clean. Best for modern, polished visuals

Lensbaby (Experimental)

Selective focus with dreamy blur and creative distortion. For artistic and experimental work

Petzval (Vintage art)

Swirly bokeh and soft vignetting with a painterly feel. Ideal for artistic portraits and dreamy scenes

Focal length

Focal length controls how wide or tight the shot feels and how the background relates to the subject.

Tip: lower number, wider view. Higher number, tighter zoom. Think of it like a dial: turn it down to see more of the scene, turn it up to focus on less.

Focal length
What it does and when to use it

8mm (Fisheye)

Extreme wide angle with visible distortion. For surreal, immersive, or action-style shots

14mm (Ultra wide)

Very wide field of view with slight distortion. Great for landscapes, architecture, and establishing shots

24mm (Wide)

Wide but natural perspective. Works well for street scenes and setting context

35mm (Standard wide)

Natural and versatile. A go-to for documentaries, dialogue scenes, and general shooting

50mm (Standard)

Closest to how the human eye sees. Good for portraits, narrative scenes, and general purpose

85mm (Portrait)

Flattering compression with shallow depth of field. Ideal for portraits and close-ups

100mm (Short tele)

Moderate zoom with good subject isolation. Use for product shots and tight portraits

200mm (Long tele)

Strong zoom that flattens depth. Best for distant subjects and compressed backgrounds
