At Filmwoche Munich, which took place from 12 to 15 January, Christie and its
distribution partner ECCO Cine Supply and Services showed Christie’s Laser-
Phosphor (LaPH) Cinema Projector.
The Christie CP2208-LP was designed with exhibitors in mind and fulfills all amended
DCI specifications. It offers 10 000 lumens brightness and can be operated for up to
30 000 hours. Due to the laser-phosphor technology, the projector emits far less
heat and is therefore also much quieter than a comparable projector with Xenon-
light.
Thomas Ruttgers, general manager of ECCO explains: “Apart from immersive audio,
laser projection in all its facets, whether RGB or Laser-Phosphor, is the topic right
now, when you are talking of developments for tomorrow’s cinema.’ This goes back
to the light efficiency of laser light sources but also to the customer’s desire for
eco-friendly operational conditions and at the same time reduced costs for lamps and consumables.
