Scanning of Negatives and Slides to Large Sizes with Maximum Quality

The drum scanner uses light-sensitive vacuum tubes, as opposed to standard scanners that use a CCD sensor. The scanning is carried out in three different channels (RGB) by separate filters, which allows for a large dynamic range, a lot of information in blacks, and high definition up to a resolution of 19,200 DPI. These 16-bit scans boast high color separation and are suitable for large prints. As the scans more accurately capture the tonal range in a negative, they make for better prints. Each frame is scanned separately with a special scanning fluid that causes the film to adhere to the drum uniformly, so that focus is maintained along the entire surface of the film, including at the edges. The fluid removes scratches and dust, which also improves and reduces the need for retouching later on.

We scan paintings, illustrations, photographs and any other two-dimensional works up to 30 x 40 cm, using a Scitex scanner to generate a high-quality file with a resolution of 600 dpi, best suited for books, catalogs, reproductions, and enlargements. When scanning, we aim to process colors to match the original. We can also scan at higher resolutions, on request for an additional fee.
