AI Summary

Traditional IMAX filmmaking is described as time‑consuming and costly, deterring most filmmakers from using 70 mm IMAX film for their next projects. The article points to the IMAX 15/70 film camera as a key obstacle, noting its considerable bulk and high operating expense. Even when budget constraints are set aside, the camera’s noise level remains a major issue, with the author emphasizing that it is “very loud.” This combination of size, cost, and sound makes the technology notoriously difficult to work with.
