Pawel Achtel ACS has been involved in extensive research for many years on a digital alternative to the classic 15-perf 65mm IMAX film camera and now he can proudly unveil his electronic version; the ACHTEL 9×7 65 Megapixel Motion Picture Camera.
During the past 30-something years, Achtel has been primarily involved with cinematography aimed for the giant IMAX screens, so he’s well acquainted with what it takes to fill a giant screen with quality imagery. He has also done work on commercials and feature productions, not least underwater projects.

He feels that there isn’t really any digital camera that comes close to 65mm IMAX photochemical cinematography and, therefore, he felt there was a niche where a digital alternative would be useful. The ACHTEL 9×7 Camera offers a global shutter in combination with a wide color gamut.
