You can't do this with only video capture (Last of Us SP) (Gaming)

Beautiful - but the old 'dust on the camera' during the lens flare moments gets old very quickly.

I can't remember which CGI film it was, but I remember a cinematographer getting very irate at the programmers putting lens flare IN to the scene, when he'd spent his entire life taking it OUT

Isn't that the irony? Here you have a CGI film, which is free from the effects of light bouncing in the various lens elements to create a flare. It is free from film grain or noise. Things that remind you that you are seeing something captured. Yet, we add these things back in.

Maybe on some level we enjoy knowing it's fake.

Or maybe it makes it feel more real. I highly recommend the making of featurette. They talk explicitly about how they introduce imperfections, and leave in camera bumps, moments of focus adjustment, etc. Despite the fact that they can make it perfect, they don't because if they do something feels off.

Real in the sense of "created by humans", not real in the sense of "this is actually happening". Would you want film grain or bad focus pulls on your holodeck?
