Digital cinema is alredy here. You see it all the time.

The most obvious examples are the last two STAR WARS movies, which were shot entirely with the CineAlta cameras -- 100% digital 24p. A PRAIRIE HOME COMPANION was shot 100% with the CineAlta 950. Michael Mann's COLLATERAL with Tom Cruise used a combination of film cameras and a digital camera called the Viper FilmStream, another pro 24p camera, and his MIAMI VICE was shot entirely with the Viper. NBC's series CONVICTION and the upcoming SUPERMAN RETURNS were both shot entirely with the new Panavision Genesis camera, a new professional digital 24p camera designed to mimic the functionality of industry-standard Panaflex cameras.

Also, a huge number of television sitcoms already capture 100% digital, mostly with the CineAltas. Such shows include JOEY, REBA, and THE GEORGE LOPEZ SHOW. BATTLESTAR GALACTICA on the SciFi channel also shoots digitally (though its pilot was shot on film). There are probably two dozen more.

So, bottom line, the future is here. There is so much digital production going on that you have been experiencing it already and not known it. Lynch is playing catch-up ball.
