Are you sure they don't mean cel phone camera or something? That wouldn't be true either - there's already been at least one feature length cel phone-shot documentary. Features have been shot on video for decades, and since Festen (the first Dogme95 film, a superb narrative feature shot with a horrible-quality Sony pocketcam in available light - but it is visually STUNNING), which was shot ten years ago, there have been hundreds if not thousands of narrative features shot on consumer-grade DV (not even HDV) camcorders. This includes not just first timers but directors like Hal Hartley, Spike Lee, Lars Von Trier, Rebecca Mailer, Jean-Luc Godard, Marc Forster... the list goes on and on. There are film studies classes that focus specifically on these (I've taught some of them myself).
