So, me being curious as to why 4K is fine for VistaVision and Technirama, am going to the logical conclusion that since 4096 is the vertical axis of resolution [the frame being rotated 90 degrees from "standard" 35mm"], the horizontal axis would be ~6K, as the 8 perf frame has a rough negative AR of 1.5:1, which is later matted [or matted and "unsqueezed" in the case of Technirama]. Am I close?
Home run!
