The Unique 3F Workflow

Even though you can find scanners with larger sensors you will not find better clarity and detail rendition when scan- ning photographic film. That is due to the electronic handling of the sensor, the mechanical precision as well as the quality of filters and the resolving power of the Rodenstock lens. The Flextight scanners are not only a piece of art seen from the outside the entire machinery is saturated with excellent solutions.

Heat reduction solutions are another example of features not found on lower range scanners. By removing the power supply outside the scanner and using a cold cathode light tube, which produces very little infrared waves, Hasselblad scanners eliminate two common sources of heat-related noise. Our X5 scanner even has active sensor cooling, which means that an electronic cooling device is placed directly on the CCD, which increases signal to noise ration by 1 to 2 bits.

The new Flextight scanners make it possible to carry out the finest quality scans with a single click of a button. We have placed a control button on the scanner itself, that enables one-touch scanning with all personal settings intact. High quality scanning has never been easier!

When selecting the 3F file format in auto- matic scan mode, images are scanned at a specified resolution of 16 bits per color. In this way the full color range of the original is extracted from the scan. The 3F file is never altered but acts as a sort of "preview scan" when you open it later, enabling you to re-do all opera- tions or change any parameter you wish. Consider it like re-scanning, but without the film original present.

Furthermore – every time you save a file from the 3F format, your action his- tory is embedded in the 3F file, which enables you to repeat these actions whenever you like. The 3F workflow also allows you to produce final TIFF images, cropped and corrected, with a single click of a button.
