IMAX Darling Harbour is home to the world's largest screen, measuring 29.5 metres high and 35.7 metres wide. It's been in place for 16 years, and now it's time for a replacement. Go behind the scenes with our photo tour, and find out why the CEO of IMAX Australia is against switching from film to digital.

Riggers work in the pit of the IMAX theatre to rig the 800-kilogram screen for its hoisting high above the floor.
Just to nitpick - the format is actually 15/70mm (as in 15 sprockets, 70mm film neg), not 1570mm!
