The Technology of Motion-Image Acquisition

There are many technologies involved in motion-image acquisition: lighting, lenses, optical filters, image sensors, signal processing, and mounts. How do they work and interact? Does lighting look the same on all cameras? Do microlenses on image sensors work the same at all lens settings? What are the effects of image-sensor size? What are the differences between raw, log, and normal outputs? Can a lens for one type of camera be used on another?
