I recently saw "Last Orders Please" and note that in I.M.D.B. the
format is listed as Digitalscope!
Can someone enlighten me.

I believe DigitalScope is a tradename for Digital Film Lab's digital intermediate for Super-16 film originals:

James,
I am led to believe that 'Last Orders' was shot on Super 35 and Digital Film Lab use the name DigitalScope when then transfering images to Anamorphic Scope.
If l'ast orders' was shot on S16, it was a good print for a 16mm blow up. If it was shot on S35 i would say it was a soft looking print that I showed.
Ive shown a film which was shot on DV and released as a Scope 35mm print which was credited at the end as in Digitalscope, I think it might of being 'Sex and Lucia' But i can't promise it was that film.Darren

Just a little off subject, but isn't is some sort of fraud to post a picture of a Yorkshireman standing in the sunshine ? Everyone knows it always rains North of Watford ! Still, at least the picture was taken in the last 20 years and the hair colour is your own !

Thanks for pointing to their site John. Interesting process.
I agree Darren. Looked too good to be Super16.Jim
