John Galt of Panavision chats a bit in the pasture...


John Galt, Panavision's Senior Vice President of Advanced Digital Imaging (and I'm happy to say, a professional acquaintance of mine) has taken some time to chat with CreativeCow.net on pixel counts, dynamic range and a really interesting new technology that Panavision has in the queue called 'DynaMax' (Think HDR in motion).

Some of this discussion does come back to the point of what the human eye actually sees... The December 9th, 2008 entry here on the blog has some additional thoughts... see "Shoot it and they will...probably see it"

As always, I refer those of you with questions to watch Panavision's excellent videos on camera sensors, image sharpness and modulation transfer function, which are permanently linked in the right margin.
