“Now that the majority of films are shot digitally, the choice of optics is more essential than ever to help to create a visual language and distinction between narratives. I’m a big proponent for doing one's own camera and optics tests for each unique project. But with so many choices, the Ultimate Cinema Lens Library is a great jumping off point and also a great guide for how to do a proper apple to apple comparison. I’m so glad this exists!
