I think choosing camera equipment is an artistic decision that should not just be picking what's state of the art at the time.

The equipment that a movie is shot on is going to have an impact on the final product, no matter what. Most artists get this, but they don't take proper advantage of it.

I think recording a movie with vintage equipment, or mimicking their output, can have a psychological impact on the audience that elevates it to the level of great films of the past.

Does anyone know any examples of this being used?

Poor Things was my recent favourite: crazy lenses, old school videography and the use of analog film.

It is the first feature film to be partially shot on Kodak's 35mm Ektachrome color reversal motion picture film stock since its revival in 2018.
