WEB SEMINAR DATE: February 29, 2012

The large number of cinemas that are now showing 3D movies has made screen brightness levels an important topic. Because of the low light efficiency of all 3D systems (some are better than others but all lose a lot of light) the de facto screen brightness standard for 3D presentations is 4.5 Foot Lamberts (fL) which is only one third of the agreed standard for 2D of 14fL.
 
In practice many 3D screens are operating with much less than 4.5fL and the choice of screen is a significant factor in this. However it is not just 3D where correct light levels are important – there are many cinemas operating in 2D with light levels below 14fL and a factor here is the higher operating costs of digital projection compared with 35 mm film projection. Screen selection is an important consideration in achieving the 14fL brightness standard in 2D presentation.
 
Harkness Screens would like to invite you to attend a forthcoming FREE web seminar on 29th February on this topic.
