In Reply to: Can films be converted to IMAX?..... posted by violinist3 on October 5, 2013 at 13:32:53:
If the original format is lower quality than original IMAX, then I would think not. But the last time that I went to a public theater (rather than my home theater) to see something, it was Avatar in IMAX digital 3D or something like that. There was a non-IMAX choice, but having seen what IMAX and Showscan did years ago, I chose IMAX. Then I did research and found out that people are still using the IMAX terminology for some lower-quality stuff, just to sell the name, I think. So, you need to be clear on what you mean by IMAX, since IMAX company is not clear:
Here is a quote from Wikipedia:
"Another disadvantage is the much lower resolution of digital IMAX compared to traditional IMAX film, which is estimated to be up to 12,000 × 8,700 pixels with at least 6,120 × 4,500 minimum discernible pixels (27 megapixels).[20] Some reviewers also note that many non-IMAX theaters are already projecting films at 4K resolution, while digital IMAX has deployed both 2K and 4K products.
Despite these concerns, IMAX has consistently chosen to hold to a uniform marketing position of "The IMAX Experience" regardless of the various underlying technologies and screen sizes.[2"
