I think you should use what you want. My uncles RCA camera that plugged into a giant VHS machine got sharp pictures and were great for Christmas in the 80's but no one ever got excited about the 'video look'.

I use to run around with my non-reflex bolex with my parallax view-finder just hoping I'm framed right with the thickest winter jacket wrapped around the camera to blimp the wind-up motor while my buddy recorded double system on a cassette recorder and radio-shack mic.

Projected on a screen it looked amazing (to me). Out of focus, shakey, grainy, dreamy frame rates. This made me feel different about moving pictures. These DSLRs and letus adapters put that feeling back in our hands after seeing perfectly focused 30 fps TV for years.

Let us artists dream and you guys that are happy with perfectly focused from here to Bolivia images keep shooting for espn and fox news.

Maybe it's just a fad, maybe just a new tool. Either way we all benefit from learning getting back to the basics Fstop, iso, and shutter speed. Using filters on lenses not the ones on the little wheel built into your camera.

It's certianly easier to pick up an HV 20 to shoot your kids playing and maintain focus while chasing them around. And it's certainly easier shooting a NFL pro quarterback thow a pass and see the tackles in focus from all angles. These tools exist. We already know about them.

But now us little guys are able to play with lenses that do things that don't come off camera trucks or out of a rental house. We can have them in our bag and make art.
