Digital cinema

Digital cinema refers to the use of digital technology to make, distribute and project motion pictures. Specifically specialized digital camcorders are used to shoot the movie as digital files on tape rather than on film. The final movie can be distributed electronically and it's projected using a digital projector instead of a conventional film projector. Note that digital cinema is distinct from high definition television and in particular, digital film is not dependent on using television or HDTV standards, aspect ratios or frame rates.
