This issue seems to pop up as a sub-discussion in various threads, but now I want a clear explanation. Some people seem to have a problem with super-35, and I understand the problems concerning theatrical showings.
But can anyone please tell me if and why a DVD transferred from super-35 (maybe framed for 2.35:1) is better/worse than a flat 35mm transfer (maybe framed for 1.85:1).
As far as I can see, the super-35 negative does actually have *more* resolution than a standard 35mm negative, so a DVD transferred from a super-35 negative should be better, or am I missing something???
