IMAX is 220 megapix, Canon's max STILLS are 22 megapix.
poias:
4K is 8 megapix. 8K is a mere 30 megapix. But IMAX is 10x 8K. Anyone thinks we are still in digital infancy in terms of resolution? DR-wise it ain't even pretty. Film kills digital. Canon being the worst of all.

Imax Digital uses two 2K projectors, but they are working on a 4K system. All the theatres are heading that way.
Why not read up before posting inaccurate information.?

Real IMAX, not lieMax that is going on. The IMAX sensor size is 8x the super35, considering it is film and has off the charts DR, the resolution+DR is unmatched by any digital. Of course, Canon's decade old sensor is probably the least competitive.

And giant rocks thrown from a massive catapult kill people in body armor a lot better than bullets do. But it's horses for courses. If film is so much better, shoot film. If medium format is better, shoot medium format.
People buy canon DSLRS because that's what works for them. I don't want 3 billion gigasuperterapixels; 23 megapickles is more than enough at this point in time. And as for dynamic range, what's the average display actually showing? I'd imagine that most end user screens don't have a gamut wide enough to display standard RAW. I could be wrong there, but I don't see the need for megapickle wars.
Or posts flaming canon, on a canon website about how canon operates.
my 2 cents

Real IMAX???
With the scratchy film and all?
I like IMAX, but they often upsize movies taken with 35mm film, and conventional video cameras, the quality is not all that great.
They are going to digital to improve the quality. Good riddence to scratchy flickering film.
