The film recorder was introduced in 2000 and replaced earlier systems that worked with cathode ray tubes.

The Arrilaser digitally imaged material present on 35 mm film in the primary colors red, green and blue using three lasers. The areal density per frame thereby achieved both 2K and 4K resolution. So that the device covers the entire current professional segment. The starting material can be played by mobile hard disk or via the data cable.
