DCP-H

The Exhibitor’s Choice for
Digital Cinema

The Christie DCP-H cinema system is a powerful digital cinema projector

utilizing the latest advancements in DLP™ Cinema Technology (the only

digital advanced technology to be endorsed by Hollywood) to offer a

truly cinematic experience for digital movies.

Christie is the preferred choice and solutions supplier to the world's

foremost exhibition communities and the world's single source in

manufacturer of cinema projection products for 35mm and Digital

Cinema. It’s no surprise; of the thirty-two Texas Instrument DLP™

Cinema reference sites, thirty-one use Christie's cinema lamphouses.

The DCP-H provides natural film-like, 24 frames per second motion

images without jump, weave, fading, flicker or ghosting, filling the

entire cinema screen with consistently bright, high quality images.

From a movie's premiere to its one thousandth screening - the movie

remains digitally perfect each and every time.

As the first DLP™ Cinema licensee, Christie has developed a 3-DMD™

"Digital Micromirror Device" assembly that insures superior image

stability and offers improved projection performance at higher

illumination levels.

Christie maintains a proud heritage in mainstream film production, a

heritage that includes awards from the Academy of Motion Picture

Arts and Sciences for our 35mm gearless film projector and endless-

loop film system (ELF).
