This is the resolution of the 2K container format standardized by DCI in their Digital Cinema System Specification in 2005. [2] [3] The resolution of the encapsulated video content follows the SMPTE 428-1 standard, [6]: §3.2.1 which establishes the following resolutions for a 2K distribution: [7]: 6
DCI 2K is a standardized format established by the Digital Cinema Initiatives consortium in 2005 for 2K video projection. This format has a resolution of 2048 × 1080 (2.2 megapixels) with an aspect ratio of 256∶135 (1.8 962 ) or roughly "17∶9". [ 11 ]
This chart shows the most common display resolutions, with the color of each resolution type indicating the display ratio (e.g., red indicates a 4:3 ratio). This article lists computer monitor, television, digital film, and other graphics display resolutions that are in common use. Most of them use certain preferred numbers.
DCI has additionally published a document outlining recommended practice for High Frame Rate digital cinema. [9] This document discloses the following proposed frame rates: 60, 96, and 120 frames per second for 2D at 2K resolution; 48 and 60 for stereoscopic 3D at 2K resolution; 48 and 60 for 2D at 4K resolution.
[63] [64] 2K resolution (2048×1080) is also only slightly greater than that of consumer based 1080p HD (1920x1080). [65] However, since digital post-production techniques became the standard in the early 2000s, the majority of movies, whether photographed digitally or on 35 mm film, have been mastered and edited at the 2K resolution.
The DCI 4K standard has twice the horizontal and vertical resolution of DCI 2K (2048 × 1080), with four times as many pixels overall. Digital movies made in 4K may be produced, scanned, or stored in a number of other resolutions depending on what storage aspect ratio is used.
This display aspect ratio is the native resolution for many 24" widescreen LCD monitors, and is expected to also become a standard resolution for smaller-to-medium-sized wide-aspect tablet computers in the near future (as of 2012). 1920×1080 (2,073k) 1920 1080 2,073,600 16:9 24 bpp DCI 2K: Digital Cinema Initiatives 2K
