Christopher Nolan is filming four sequences in the next installment of Warner Bros. Pictures’ Batman franchise, “The Dark Knight,” with extremely high resolution IMAX® cameras using the giant 15/70 film format.

The marriage of footage filmed with IMAX and 35mm cameras in the final feature will have a major impact on the audience’s viewing experience, whether seeing “The Dark Knight” in an IMAX or traditional theatre. When the scenes shot on IMAX cameras are shown in IMAX theatres, the aspect ratio will morph to 1.43 to 1, expanding the image to fill the entire screen and magnifying the overall effect, both literally and figuratively.
