So I have more of a technical question that I am not sure if it's been answered before...I've noticed on some of the Jomez videos there is a distinct difference in the look of different shots. It's like the difference between film and video. The video is a little crisper and the film has a little softer feel to it. This is in no way a criticism just more of a nerdy observation...Would anyone know the difference between the two? Or am I hallucinating lol?
I think you might be referring to the super high end slow-mo camera that Jonathan Gomez usually holds. They sometimes use it for regular shots as well. The visual difference is caused by the short focal length of that camera, which has only the player in focus. When they first started using it I found the difference so jarring that it actually made me feel queasy. I think they've softened the focus a bit over time, because that problem has gone away for me.
