70mm optical prints from 65mm negatives are technically superior to any current digital projection standard, IMAX 70mm is even better.

70mm optical prints from 65mm negatives are technically superior to any current digital projection standard, IMAX 70mm is even better.
- mrob 8y agoTechnically superior only for still shots. 24fps has such poor motion quality that all the advantage is lost whenever something moves or pans. Digital projectors are available for 4K 120fps, which produces more realistic video than any film format (even Showscan).
- frostburg 8y agoYou could build a 70mm projector that runs faster, it's not like they're silent at 24fps.
- pdemporg 8y agoUnfortunately, probably not. 70mm on a Vic8 already can be prone to tearing if not handled correctly, I wouldn't trust tape splices any faster than 24fps. IMAX already has zig-zag shaped splices to survive the faster film speed of 8 perf 70mm.
