Recently I've stumbled upon several Hollywood movies PR photos, that have full EXIF and they seem to be shot with DSLR or mirrorless cameras like 5DMIII or A7S. I always thought they would take shots straight from the movie, which I guess makes no sense to shoot with DSLR. Or does it? I've read interviews with several cinematographers who occasionally use 7D or 5DMIII for handheld shots or camera glued to a car shots etc., but I've always believed this is a less common practice. So possibly there are photographers on the set that just make the same shot as is being filmed? But what's the point? I guess that wouldn't work for scenes with heavy special effects or color grading. Maybe it's much easier like this for analog shot movies?
Does anyone knows how these promotional pictures are made?
