Just because a camera can video under natural does not make that natural light good.
Light and the position of the model can be well lite or badly lite.
In the beginning of cinema when all was shot outside with natural light reflectors and arc lights were used to fill shadows and control the "natural light".
"X-art" is not lighting, it is just one lighting set up.
Lighting is were the lighting changes from shot to shot and scene to scene as an integral part of telling the story.
Fans of soft focus seem to not realize that it is a fad. Gregg Toland won Oscars with his Deep Focus Cinematography as in Citizen Kane.
Audiences will soon tire of videos half out of focus, like they did of fog filters in the 70s.
Anybody who wants a large sensor camera can have one for $400 as Sony have put their CMOS sensor in the NEX 5N.
