Customer Testimonials
TRANSPERFECT, PARIS; FRANCE
French lab Transperfect is proud to enjoy the Scanity WetGate technology. The WetGate system gives us the opportunity to scan the most damaged films with a state-of-the-art quality and in very secure conditions when the source material is fragile. The WetGate system enables us to restore scratches on film in an analog way, which decreases the time spent in digital restoration afterwards.
POST PRODUCTION ENGINEER AT FINAS
SCANITY's high-speed film scanning with exceptional image quality allows us to leverage our services to the Malaysian film market. It provides us with many more tools than a traditional Telecine, which we were using prior to our new purchase. Now we can scan and generate multiple file formats for use throughout our DI processes.
TRANSPERFECT MEDIA, PARIS, FRANCE
We are very satisfied with our Scanity which enables us to scan ancient films with great care and with an amazing resolution
Film digitisation has been an ongoing project in KAVI since 2012. After setting up an archiving system for digital assets and a workflow for post production and restoration, we chose the dft Scanity for its gentle film handling and high speed 4k scanning. Using Scanity, we have produced nearly a petabyte of digital materials, and in 2015 we scanned, restored and mastered 55 feature films and more than 350 short films and documentaries.
We are happy with the Scanity, and find that it treats our films very gently
We are impressed with the speed, the gentle film-handling, the resolution, dynamic range, and ease of operation of dft's Scanity. Reliability is always a major factor, and we place a big emphasis upon commissioning, training and after-sales support. Our experience with dft has been exemplary. Although we are on the other side of the world, we have rapid response to any questions, and are continually impressed by the expertise of dft's front-line staff.
AUDIOVISUAL PRESERVATION SPECIALLIST, NATIONAL LIBRARY OF NORWAY
Scanity enabled us to scan material that would have otherwise been lost (as it could not be restored in an analogue way). It also lets us preserve as much of the film as possible, by allowing us to overscan; scanning the frame and other information that is around the picture frame without a resolution penalty.
HEAD OF TECHNOLOGY STRATEGIES, NATIONAL FILM AND SOUND ARCHIVE OF AUSTRALIA
The dft Scanity performs very well in the gentle handling of fragile, shrunken film and efficient scanning of soundtracks and images at high resolution.
