Next-generation 2D digital camera

As stated before by IMAX: “The next-generation 2D digital camera – co-developed by IMAX and ARRI – is meant for use by today’s leading filmmakers working in the IMAX® format. The joint solution is designed as a complementary tool to IMAX’s high-resolution capture technologies – including its 3D digital and 15perf / 65mm film cameras. Moreover, IMAX worked with ARRI to achieve the highest level of digital image capture for playback on IMAX’s xenon and new laser projection systems.”

Final thoughts

It seems that the combination of the IMAX and ARRI 65 is widely used especially in special huge Hollywood projects. We wrote before about the implementation of this combination on the Lion King 2019.
