Searching for Sonny

this is the first feature film to be shoot on a DSLR

website

film entirely was recorded with 5D mark ii.

5D mark ii has some disadvantages such as non autofocus and non manuel exposure control while recording.

For exposure control they used old nikon f mount adaptor to EOS mount for old nikon 50mm lens to be able to have the aperture control;

and they used special gear goes around the focusing ring that controls the focus without touching the camera. because it is very hard to focus and compose the scene at the same time; one person was in charge of focusing with the remote.
