Shiny discs need a laser in a dark, stable space with lots of cache and a purpose-built lens and sensor to read them reliably. I don't see a camera or a scanner

Shiny discs need a laser in a dark, stable space with lots of cache and a purpose-built lens and sensor to read them reliably. I don't see a camera or a scanner having that reliability.
Every new pixel you want to render from a lens reveals more and more flaws. That's why older lenses often perform poorly on newer digital cameras: the designers didn't have to contend with 24, 50, 100... megapixel sensors. Even the 24 baseline already pushes what the film they make 4K remasters from can support and that's twice as big as what most film still cameras use.
