The Alexa has ruined me for other digital cinema cameras, especially DSLRs.
Here is my decidedly non-technical perspective on shooting with the Arri Alexa. I shot in Rec 709, not even Log C and I don’t care, it was so pretty. I didn’t measure latitude, and I didn’t have a chip chart either. I just pointed the Alexa and stuff and fell in love with the amazing image it made. The biggest thing the Alexa has done is freed me from the idea of needing to do endless camera tests to determine under what conditions my cinematic image will break down and show it’s harsh little DV roots. With the Alexa you just shoot, there is nothing to test, and nothing to hide.
