Author Topic: economics of 70mm releases (historical question) Sam D. Chavez Film God Posts: 2153 From: Martinez, CA USA Registered: Aug 2003 posted 01-06-2016 03:20 PM                       DA20 list price was just under $20K initially. Dropped to $15K pretty quickly and I forget the period between that and when it ended up as a card bay in the 500. Price went down some more wen it ended up on one card inside the 650. DTS definitely influenced the price of SR.D, no question.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 01-12-2016 11:05 AM                     Monte, here is a picture of the DP-70 is n the Villa booth... If there were ever any JJ's in there they were most likely two of the Cinerama heads converted to run 70mm Cinerama. I've had several of those and there is or was a pair in the Uptown Theater in D.C. But for a period of time longer than I've lived here the booth had Norelco's and an AW-3... Mark  |  IP: Logged
