Im an x projectionist from some 35+ years in the industry working in top city theatres in Auckland and Sydney some 25 years ago…
I have over 1800 blu-rays a large part are classic older titles from silent up to the 90s.
I find all my latest titles within the last 5 years or so are remarkable on my 145” curved scope screen using the JVC NX9.
However I find may of the older titles that would have originally been 35MM are questionable with ringing and other edge enhancement artefacts.
Why are so many of these older titles been restored/processed with such high edge enhancements?
These films were 35MM the quality should look amazing, are they really taken from 35MM prints, negatives or just upscaled from DVD?
