- matheusmoreira 1y agoThe dedication of fans never ceases to amaze. > When a film is professionally scanned in 16-bit color as DPX image files, every single frame weighs in at 100 MB. > With upwards of 175,000 frames in each film, a complete scan requires about 21 TB of storage > 42 TB if you want a backup copy! > And then you need at least another 21 TB of space to work on it > over $1,000 just in hard drives is therefore required for every film
- SoftTalker 1y agoA tiny expense in the grand scheme of things. The original film stock probably cost an order of magnitude more.
- Melatonic 1y agoYou probably are not gonna to need 16 bit DPX for anything but high end compositing with CG Your point still stands but a good quality cineform or something is plenty. And you can definitely get 21TB cheaper than 1000$
- spiderice 1y agoThat comparison is really cool. I was mostly paying attention to the 4K77 vs 2011 bluray, and in most cases I thought 4K77 looked better. Not sure why they felt the need to mess with the colors so drastically in the 2011 version.
