DCP-I

Digital Cinema Projection for
Small Screen Applications

Designed specifically to meet the needs of small screen cinema and

post-production applications, the Christie DCP-I utilizes the latest

advancements in DLP™ Cinema Technology. As the only digitally

advanced technology to be endorsed by Hollywood, DLP™ Cinema

technology offers a truly cinematic experience for digital movies.

Preferred by the world's foremost post-production and exhibition

communities, Christie offers the most comprehensive line of cinema

projectors available today and is the world's single source

manufacturer of cinema projection products for 35mm and Digital

Cinema. Its no surprise; of the thirty-two Texas Instrument DLP™

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

The DCP-I 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 projection, 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).
