"HD in film-making" section
where does this 'data' come from?

"The four major film formats provide pixel resolutions (calculated from pixels per millimeter) roughly as follows:


 * Academy Sound (Sound movies before 1955): 15 mm × 21 mm (1.375) = 2,160 × 2,970
 * Academy camera US Widescreen: 11 mm × 21 mm (1.85) = 1,605 × 2,970
 * Current Anamorphic Panavision ("Scope"): 17.5 mm × 21 mm (2.39) = 2,485 × 2,970
 * Super-35 for Anamorphic prints: 10 mm × 24 mm (2.39) = 1,420 × 3,390"

there is no citation provided for it, nor details of the film-stock which supposedly has this 'resolution', nor any mention of the differences in contrast handling, image-noise & so forth.

some evidence or it goes.

Impending removal of the "World Wide Web HD resolutions" table
I worked on this table a number of years ago, but it's rarely been updated since. I'm working on a larger project to merge together a number of existing pages and tables related to "video hosting services" (see the discussion). As with my comment (made in 2009) about our futile attempt to compile a comprehensive list of all movies "filmed in HD", it seems unwise to attempt to compile a list of all video hosting services and their parameters/features. As I proceed with my project, I'll be removing this table and linked to a page about video hosting services. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rburriel (talk • contribs) 17:35, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

1080i, full? no
1080i has never been, nor considered, to be FULL HD. Only progressive 1080 is or has been. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.6.223.50 (talk) 06:29, 1 September 2021 (UTC)
