At Digital Film Group, we use the Lasergraphics and Celco systems for their superior resolution, as well as their subtlety of color and contrast matching ability. Some companies with proprietary film recording systems may produce “acceptable” results when compared on small projection screens like those used in film laboratories for watching dallies. However, the real test of a film-resolution capable system comes when you project the film the same size that your audience will see it – in other words between 25 and 60 feet across.

A true film resolution system will maintain it’s resolution up to and beyond a 60 foot wide projection. Which is why when

comparing tests from different companies, we encourage you to judge the differences on a screen that is at least 25 feet wide.

For Digital Intermediates (D.I.) and Visual F/X – true film resolution is even more important. In a D.I. process, you want to take advantage of all the resolution and color available in the intermediate format (usually HD, 2K or 4K). And for Visual F/X of course, resolution is key to inter-negative matching, grain and color consistency.
