Benchmarks now exist for understanding cinematic technique, but generation fidelity to terms like dolly-in, rack focus or 35mm vs 85mm is less settled. Which prompt vocabularies actually shift camera behaviour, and which are ignored? Why this is still open: CineTechBench evaluates generation models, but per-model results were not read here and models change faster than benchmarks.
