The secret to art photography is using a zoom lens, autofocus, auto exposure, and holding the shutter down. When you make a film, most of the time the actual artists involved do not operate cameras, the director gives the people who operate the cameras directions and basic rules to follow. They certainly have the option to assume direct control, but in most cases, just directing the camera monkeys suffices. Today, AI built into advanced cameras like the Sony™ A7RV takes the place of these lowly camera men, so even though you're holding the camera, you are the director and can focus entirely on the creativity of the image rather than worrying if your rings, wheels, switches, and buttons are set right, which is the job of a technician, not an artist.
