Improving 35mm Theater Projection

Abstract: To improve 35mm motion-picture projection, scores of experimental tests have been directed toward a film- and eye-limited system rather than an equipment-limited system. To check the final screen results, a new resolution test film was developed, along with a photographic recording technique to record the details of the projected picture. The projection results of typical theaters are compared with the results of the Ultra-vision system of Wil-Kin, Inc. Eye resolution, film resolution and film pulldown mechanical limits are analyzed; a proposal for a new SMPTE test film is made.
