2K resolution is a generic term for display devices or content having a horizontal resolution of approximately 2,000 pixels. [1] In the movie projection industry, Digital Cinema Initiatives is the dominant standard for 2K output and defines a 2K format with a resolution of 2048 × 1080 .
In digital cinema, resolutions are represented by the horizontal pixel count, usually 2K (2048×1080 or 2.2 megapixels) or 4K (4096×2160 or 8.8 megapixels). The 2K and 4K resolutions used in digital cinema projection are often referred to as DCI 2K and DCI 4K. DCI stands for Digital Cinema Initiatives.
IMAX is a proprietary system of high-resolution cameras, film formats, film projectors, and theaters known for having very large screens with a tall aspect ratio (approximately either 1.43:1 or 1.90:1) and steep stadium seating, with the 1.43:1 ratio format being available only in few selected locations.
24 and 48 fps @ 2K stereoscopic; MXF Interop (JPEG 2000) – Deprecated 24 and 48 fps @ 2K (MXF Interop can be encoded at 25 frame/s but support is not guaranteed) 24 fps @ 4K; 24 fps @ 2K stereoscopic; MXF Interop (MPEG-2) – Deprecated 23.976 and 24 fps @ 1920 × 1080; Maximum frame sizes are 2048 × 1080 for 2K DC, and 4096 × 2160 for 4K DC.
The Academy Film Archive houses the Digital Cinema Initiatives, LLC Collection, which includes film and digital elements from DCI's Standard Evaluation Material (StEM), a 12-minute production shot on 35mm and 65mm film, created for vendors and standards organizations to test and evaluate image compression and digital projection technologies.
I would expect a digital cinema with a reasonable screen size (and the production side of course) to use much more than 1920 × 1080 pixels—those (upcoming) resolutions are called “2K” and “4K” in the industry AFAIK. The main fault of this template, IMO, is the ugly image it uses (and which I created).
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". [12] This is the native resolution for DCI-compliant 2K digital projectors – active displays ...
The resolution of 960H depends on whether the equipment is PAL or NTSC based: 960H represents 960 x 576 (PAL) or 960 x 480 (NTSC) pixels. [29] 960H represents an increase in pixels of some 30% over standard D1 resolution, which is 720 x 576 pixels (PAL), or 720 x 480 pixels (NTSC). The increased resolution over D1 comes as a result of a longer ...
