3500 lines aren’t enough? 😉
The final scans will be in ACES colourspace.
Nice; hopefully we can get a P3 gamut version produced.
Haha I was referring to how the apparent resolution of release prints is rather low, which I guess shouldn’t be too surprising given that 35mm negative struggles to resolve as well as a Arri 3K camera. Even moreso the case for older theatrical prints; I’d imagine newer print making processes introduce less degradation vs older methods.
For those who’d like to go down the rabbit hole, the director of photography for The Last Jedi made a very interesting video lecture about how different different cameras and formats influence the apparent resolution of an image… basically arguing that the focus on pixel count is misguided; his comparison showing that a 11k scanned 70MM Imax negative struggles to resolve as clear as a 4k master from an Arri Alexa 65 is rather sobering.
poita said:
it should resolve well above 2K.
I dunno about that; if a 6k scanned 35mm negative has trouble resolving as well as the Arri 3k camera, and take prob 20% off that figure for generational loss (in reality I think it’d be a lot more), you’re looking at about 2.4k.
Here’s some further reading on the matter that’s rather interesting;: http://www.reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?59036-Resolution-of-35mm-film-and-70mm-IMAX-film
