Well its been awhile since I posted, simply because I still cant solidly post anything and mention too much yet from the past 2 features ive been on, BUT my Gold Plaque arrived today from Australia thanks to @dmooredop for the pickup and transit from ACS Headquarters in Sydney. A big thank you to @raminsohrab and Mohsen Sarafi for trusting me on this project. A big hands down the master of mood my friend and gaffer @darksidetuonela who also came to Iran and endured a crazy action movie adventure. To my Iranian crew, i wish you the best of safety in these crazy times of the world.

3 months back home in Australia now coming to an end. Im sure going to miss all these skies. Time to head back to UAE after a small stint in Europe. #seeaustralia #australia #sunsets #clouds #travel #travelphotography #fuji #fujixpro3 @fujifilm_global @fujifilmx_au (at Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg1Y3Nhr1iY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

With Pawel Achtel ACS @pawel.achtel and his mind blowing innovative Camera the Achtel 9x7. Ive seen this camera only online past years but to have the man himself break it down and explain the science was a unique and fortunate experience to have. Its definitely not a camera you would film your next narrative with, but the way this thing handles color and metadata blows most things out of the water. 18k Resolution, 4:3 aspect ratio 16-bit RAW unprocessed direct from the sensor to the drive 11gb/second data rates Thank you once again ACS @austcine.nsw for putting this together. #workplacewoody (at Australian Cinematographers Society) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce3sBaOJFJd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Its been a creamy year this year and too busy to post. My entire year so far has been on these Cooke Full Frame Special Flare x1.8 Anamorphics for a feature i cant name right now, block 1 now wrapped and block 2 to commence later this year. Special cheers to our focus pullers @ali.murad1 and @tiwariniraj2813 nailing it on these. I try to keep things at T4-5.6 but the fall off and depth of field on these things is a whole other planet. Im now back home in Sydney for a few months while we are on a break so keen to catch up with everyone. @arri @cinesaddle 📸 @veronika_photography . . . . #markhobz #cinematographer #disney+ #featurefilm #cookeoptics #filmmakersworld #filmmaking #movie #fullframe #bts #behindthescenes #cinematography #arri (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdUQuajBq_r/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
