Imagica takes film scanning to 8K
Whether you're importing or outputting, who doesn't want more resolution? That seems to be Imagica's position — it introduced its Imager HSX-8K film scanner at this year's IBC. While the product isn't expected to ship any sooner than September 2008, the Tokyo-based company still claims it will be the highest-performing, pin-registered scanner available in the industry. The aimed-for scanning speed (35mm) is 4-perf film of four frames of 4K each second, or eight frames per second at 2K. The system, which can also be configured to scan two frames of 8K per second, will use a custom-designed 8Kx6K CCD area array sensor that offers high resolution, high dynamic range, and low noise, as well as fast readouts, allowing for high-speed scanning. www.imagica-technologies.com
