When projected, as the size of the screen increases, the Blue-Ray quality decreases. IMAX was made for large scale theaters anyway, so it would be better to show IMAX on a large screen.
An IMAX dome screen will surround a visitor in the picture, while a flat screen is typically like a large version of a normal movie screen. Note that IMAX 3-D can only be shown on IMAX flat screens, not domed screens because the image will be distorted on domed screens.
Current 3D content is available on broadcast channels and on Bluray discs. The content is HD regardless of the source so there will be no discernible difference between Bluray and broadcast 3D signals.
There no difference at all. Imax just has a bigger screen and better sound. In my opinon i would prefer RealD 3D
By KailynZ Hmmm, well I know Imax makes things look bigger - ALOT BIGGER, But 3D just makes things pop out (Making it look like everything's happening in front of you, which it technically is...) See? Imax - Makes things look bigger 3D - Makes everything pop out!!
the only difference is that the cut scenes look a little better on PS3 due to 360 having to compress them to fit on a dvd vs a bluray.
One is in digital projection on a regular size screen in 3D while the other is on an IMAX screen in 3D (Xd).
As of July 2014, the market cap for Imax Corporation (IMAX) is $1,765,316,702.40.
CDs, DVDs and BluRay discs all work in similar ways. The primary difference is the data density on each disc. CD is the lowest density. A DVD can store several times the amount of data on the same surface area and BluRay will store several time the amount of a DVD.
IMAX is better than a regular movie theatre because of the size of the screen.The IMAX screen usually spans from wall to wall, unlike traditional screens that are mounted in the center of the room. The light used to project an IMAX film is a super bright 15,000 watt Xenon Bulb, which allows for a better, stronger, clearer picture with a higher rate of contrast. IMAX has special Sound Engenieers or Audio Engineers who specify in creating speakers with a more powerful output in addition to crystal quality sound.In addition, IMAX theatres are in general, of a much better quality, because of the standards that they have to abide by, set forth by IMAX corporation. IMAX tells the theatres which movies to play, how to show them, etc.
The symbol for Imax Corporation in the NYSE is: IMAX.
IMAX is widescreen and a clearer digital picture but are much more expensive and high tech to shoot. The cameras way like 6 times that of a normal camera. IMAX done right is seen in a 360 wrap around screen so you feel like you are in the middle of the action yourself. IMAX pictures are only seen in IMAX capable theatres and not all are wrap around screens. Video and sound quality is at it's highest level or awesomeness with IMAX. The picture seems so much more clearer and precise. Normal cameras tend to be a little grainier.
