3 premium screens
Daqing
There are 3 premium screens in Daqing, IMAX. The biggest picture is at Daqing Science and Technology Museum — 382 m² of lit screen, 53% more than the next room.
One room — Daqing Science and Technology Museum — can show the full 1.43:1 IMAX frame. Everywhere else in town crops to 1.90, which is roughly a quarter less picture on a film shot for it.
One of these is a dome, scored on projected surface area — not a like-for-like comparison with a flat screen, and noted as such on the pages.
Ranked
Scored on the picture each room actually lights, not the fabric it is painted on. A tilde means the projector rests on a single dated source.
Choosing in Daqing
If you are choosing tonight
It is Daqing Science and Technology Museum against Daqing Omnijoi & IMAX. 382 m² of lit picture against 250 m², 53% more — IMAX 15/70mm Film against IMAX Digital Xenon.
Daqing Science and Technology Museum also shows the full 1.43:1 frame, so it is the bigger picture and the taller one. There is no trade-off to weigh in Daqing.
Worth leaving Daqing for
Harbin Tai Lai Era & IMAX is about 85 mi away and beats everything in Daqing — 182 m² more lit picture than the best room here.
