An original example: a student making "Static", a tense one-room thriller, deliberately shoots on an older sensor with visible grain and uses only practical lamps. The technology's affordances (its grain, its limited dynamic range) are chosen because they serve a gritty, unsettled style. A cleaner, newer camera would fight the intended aesthetic.
