I'm working on a short film. This past weekend, we had trouble with our 35mm adapter, so we had to shoot 2 scenes without.

I've got it working - but I've been told if I shoot the rest of the scenes with an adapter, it will be very jarring and the footage will look very different.

Is that the conventional wisdom? I'm on a tight schedule, so it would be hard to shoot with the adapter, then find out it's too different from what we've already shot.

I realize no one reading this knows what the film is about, but I'm wondering if any has any thoughts?

thanks

Nope. Mixing footage is fine as long as you've been using an adapter of decent quality. You can soften up your non-adapter footage in post if you notice a bigger difference than anticipated. I do it all the time and no one's ever noticed.
