Traditionally, the organization selects five nominees, but a three-way tie this year boosted that number to seven. Not surprisingly, the ASC Awards noms closely mirror the Oscar nominations this year with five of the seven nominees, Le Sourd, Lubezki, Delbonnel, Papamichael and Deakins, also getting Oscar nods.
