i read at the weekend that 28 Days Later, the classic zombie flick by Danny Boyle, was filmed in 480p. I was trying to find a decent quality version to stream but the quality was always shit.
I'm guessing there's gonna be a ton of films from the early 2000s that are going to using shitty digital technology as we crossover form analogue to digital?

- Cheers. I'll have a read. I filmed by friends wedding on a Go-pro. It sounded awful but didn't look so bad.Ianbolton
- I remember seeing 28DL in a theatre and about 30min I noticed and thought, “whoa was this shot on digital?” (I minored in cinematography)********
- It was shot on Canon XL1, with better glass. You can see scenes where they faked DOF by layering out of focus footage over top.********
- they should do a release where it's played though a sony trinitron and kinescope'd in 4kkingsteven

- There aren’t a TON of successful films shot digital. Big films were still shot on film. Digital cinema cameras did get better pretty quickly, too.********
- One that comes to mind is Collateral. Michael Mann chose digital for the look but it’s not beautiful. Won’t age well.********
- Collateral and 28DL will look worse as digital tech gets better. Film hasn’t had this problem because you can rescan the film itself.********
- Many movies today are shot on digital, but the cameras are closer to film so there won’t be as much of a noticeable difference moving forward********
- I still believe analogue will always be better than digital. Happy to be proven otherwise though. And i know digital tech these days is fucking nuts!Ianbolton
