>>The motion picture industry uses a film scanning and writing process
that

digital

etc. use 
>>this technology all the time.  

And then there is the increasing interest in using Technicolor 3-strip IB
Process, too. For the most part, a process that was discontinued before
many on this list were born. Old technology for superior results.
Remember folks, a great looking movie is not always dependant upon
resolution of the film. It is a part of it to be sure, but not the most
important.
