Biography

Nikos Dimopoulos (1926 - March 13, 2012) was a Greek cinematographer, who is considered one of the most important cinematographers in Greece. He is best known, however, for his long-term collaboration with the company Finos Film, in which he participated in over 70 films. A great moment in his career is the film The Soil Was Painted Red (1966), which was nominated for a foreign language film for an Oscar. Nikos was the brother of Dinos Dimopoulos, the well-known Greek director.

Dimopoulos started his career at the Finos Film company, in the early 50s, as a photographer's assistant at the time. He started as a cinematographer with the film O thesauros tou makaritis (1959) and from this position he participated in 47 films of Finos Film. However, in the 70s he left Greece for Australia. There he worked mainly in television.

In addition to being a photographer, he also made a directorial attempt, in 1964, in a short film, Cyprus, the island of lads.
