Should you use the HVX200 for the Big Screen?

Actually, saying that THE NINES was helmed on SD cams isn't entirely accurate. The film has different movements (a.k.a parts) and each movement uses a different format.

Part Two was the only part of the movie that was shot in Standard Definition. The rest of the movie was shot on 3-perf 35mm and Super-16.

If you don't believe me...

You're probably right. That's not the same John August entry I read, however. The one I read talked about them switching from film, to HD, to SD BUT I do know that each part was shot differently so I wouldn't doubt that you're right.

It still means that SD is still good enough for Big Screen and named talent, so why isn't the HVX?
