    Digital cameras don't capture it... requires after processing filters... and that is too much money.

      that's weird, because my digital cameras can do depth of field.

          Yes but it's a huge pain in the ass to achieve on anything that's not a DSLR or that doesn't have lens mounts.

          I shoot small mainstream projects on DSLR. Most of the time you're worried about just staying in focus....and that's on shots that are planned and storyboarded out.

          I couldn't imagine shooting something as unpredictable as porn with DOF in mind.

                Depth of field is the distance between the nearest and farthest objects in a scene that appear acceptably sharp in an image. It has nothing to do with whether a camera is digital or analog.

                    Looks really nice!

                    Btw, nice text at the end of the movie:
                    "I don't pay them for sex. I pay them to leave"

                                Don't worry in a few years time when everyone is shooting on a large sensor camera someone will post , "Why can't we have porn with a large Depth of Field?"

                                These are fads by people who can't think of anything original to do themselves.

                                      Yes, it's terribly expensive and very hard to do, and none of you should attempt it; it will only end in disapointment, shame and failure.

                                      Or...

                                      Buy a 50mm 1.4/1.8 for non full frame cameras or an 85mm 1.2/1.4/1.8 for full frame as these work well in limited space. All telephoto lenses do it really well (See Jay Rocks stuff for details) but need space to work well.

                                      Anywhere between wide open 1.4 or about f4 - will work really well, dilute to taste.

                                      It's all about separation - the main background needs to be at least a few feet behind the subject. Works best on standing shots as on anything else it's hard to keep fanny* and face in focus.

                                      When shooting you really want to shoot lots as the failure rate is higher than with regular in focus stuff. Target is either closest eye or hole of choice.

                                      *That's an Imperial measure of fanny, IE pussy.

                                              It's related to the aperture, the smaller the aperture the bigger the depth of field. So for most it\s related to the amount of light you have. Shoot indoors at F11 or smaller and it should be fine, unless it's indoors in a big barn. Shoot at F32 and it shod all be fin3e, but the flash might blind everyone. LOL

                                              Outdoors you're controlled by the available light, the sun. Or you need to get power for your strobes. Simon's reply was good.

                                                    Shooting video with DSLRs is a tremendous pain in the ass. It takes longer to shoot a scene with way more preplanning. More time on set takes all the "HEAT" out of a scene.

                                                    Also, amatuer talent moves in unpredictable ways that fucks up all of your planned shots 90% of the time.

                                                    I contend that we are both an atheist. I just belive in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.

                                                        Today with digital cameras there is no excuse for getting, lighting, focusing or DOF spot on.

                                                          This things come and go. Shallow DOF is popular as with small format cameras the DOF is large. When films were shot on slow filmstocks deep DOF was the fashion...

                                                          ?deep-focus shots with incredible depth-of field and focus from extreme foreground to extreme background (also found in Toland's earlier work in Dead End (1937), John Ford's The Long Voyage Home (1940), and Hitchcock's Rebecca (1940)) that emphasize mise-en-scene; also in-camera matte shots


                                                          In a few years everyone will be sick of watching shots with half the actors out of focus and it will swing back.


                                                          I think the really interesting development is the drop in prices of data recorders. This means that the cheap cameras like the Sony EX1 which records at only 35 Mbps can be used to record at 100 Mbps 4.2.2 using the SDI output.

                                                                  I Use it for stills every time I shoot Pretty Girls. Use less of it she I shoot hardcore, because I personally like seeing the girls face and penetration in focus.


                                                                  Now for video, Im cool with the story line and lead up having depth of field, but I personally don't like shooting my sex part of the video like that. As in hardcore sex stills, I like to see the girls face and the penetration clearly.


                                                                  An lastly, when I shoot pretty girls and story for video, I like to use edge lighting and back lighting. It another tool used to set your subject apart from the background. Easy to do and I like the look. But when I shoot hardcore sex on video, I personally like shooting my couple flat, and I use a C-Light where I can light the penetration and make it match the rest of what I shoot. Lit up.. As I said before, I personally want to see the details of the cock splitting what ever girl Im shooting. I i shoot it right, you will see everything and you absolutely will not notice the C-light.


                                                                  Artistically blurring out the Penetration shot or using contrast lighting on a hardcore sex scene is lame and boring to me. If you are shooting a soft core scene or something for Skin-O-Max then fine.


                                                                  So at the end of the day I can do it and if I'm paid to do it, I will do it. But personally for hardcore sex, I really don't like it. I prefer the cut-less hardcore, high energy sex scene over the artsy stuff.


                                                                  This is what I like:

                                                                          No thats art to me!!!

                                                                            Quote

                                                                            ?deep-focus shots with incredible depth-of field and focus from extreme foreground to extreme background (also found in Toland's earlier work in Dead End (1937), John Ford's The Long Voyage Home (1940), and Hitchcock's Rebecca (1940)) that emphasize mise-en-scene; also in-camera matte shots


                                                                            In a few years everyone will be sick of watching shots with half the actors out of focus and it will swing back.


                                                                            I think the really interesting development is the drop in prices of data recorders. This means that the cheap cameras like the Sony EX1 which records at only 35 Mbps can be used to record at 100 Mbps 4.2.2 using the SDI output.
                                                                            One of my favorite deep focus shots was definitely in Citizen Kane when he's seated at the type writer and dood shows in the background. so many great shots in that movie.

                                                                            But depth DOF stuff is really hard to pull in adult because we mostly do not lock our cameras on tripods. Most of us shoot gonzo style, and that does not really work well with persistent focus or follow focus for that matter.
