Full Frontal (Steven Soderberg) but that's not a good example becuause it's shot with both 35mm Panavision as well as with the XL1s and they butchered the XL1s footage with some sort of grain plug-in and blew the colors way out of whack.

"Chuck & Buck"
"Tadpole"
"Personal Velocity"
"November"
"Open Water"
"Tape"
"Bamboozled"
"The Anniversary Party"
"Dancer in the Dark"
"The Celebration"
"Manic"
"Pieces of April"
"Chelsea Walls"
"Things Behind the Sun"


And, even though they probably aren't what you're looking for:

"Timecode"
"Full Frontal"

Those are all I can think of at the moment.
I'm sure I'll come up with more as soon as I hit the 'post' button.

Can't remember who it was here who originally recommended PERSONAL VELOCITY but if for nothing else then the DP commentary on the disk it is worth the price (especially if you get it used off someplace like eBay or Half.com).

Their use of contrast filters and smoke defusion is great. Highly recommended.

Don't forget "Charlotte Sometimes"

Gorgeous film that really shows how proper lighting and good framing and more important than anything good story and acting can make any format look good.

The website has some decent info on how they did it as well.

Heath...

"9/11" - by Jules and Gedeon Naudet - filmed with a PD150

"Supersize This" - filmed with a PD150

Check out my post under "DV for the Masses" I can't figure out how to take you over there, but the titile is "Films with a VX2000 or PD150". There are more listed over there.

Waking Life

Shot with dv, but entirely animated over.

Julien Donkey-Boy

One of the best dv-shot films known to me, if not the best.

"the Fast Runner" was digiBeta, not DV.
