pushing the OBSCURA37 with
Sony | Professional Filmmaking A7SIII
The Sony A7SIII is a remarkable camera - a 6 year old design which has amazing low light performance, even by modern standards, and when combined with the OBSCURA37 pinhole imager delivers compelling moving images with a soft dreamy fidelity harking back to the days of 8mm movie-making.
Oliver was one of the first cinematographers to truly explore and embrace OBSCURA37 capture, even inter-cutting with BLACKWING7 lens footage to build creative, mixed-format motion picture clips which draw the viewer’s attention and challenge traditional image recognition- “what am I experiencing here, images from a lens, or not a lens, or both ?!?”
We’d love to see more OBSCURA37 image creations to share with the community ! Please DM and we’ll post up what we can 👌🏼
For OBSCURA37 details and to order, please follow the link in our bio. We’ve a small backlog to work through (thanks for everyone’s patience) but with plenty of new stock now on hand (as of 1st August) we’ll be shipping new orders in 1-2 weeks.
