Overview
The M1 version is the base machine of the PromptScan product line and comes as a desktop device. It provides manual feeding of film rolls and cut films. The camera array is mounted on top of the machine providing an easily accessible work area.
The M1 uses an array of high precision industrial cameras, sensors and lenses. It accurately captures aerial pictures with a resolution of 20 μm (pixel size).
Our downholder glass plates are manufactured to the highest quality standards. The high grade of flateness of our glasses provides an almost perfect suppression of Newton rings.
Four automated raisers lift the plate during every transport movement of the film.
All PromptScan machines provide the full range of scanning modes. It doesn't matter if you want to digitize panchromatic or color films. The high dynamic range and adjustable color also enables accurate capture of red-based negative films.
Automated exposure control means you do not need to make any manual adjustments.
We decided to offer scanning solutions for mostly every case. This version provides a simple manual solution for the film transport. An operator winds the transport wheel to the next relevant frame position and triggers the scanning process with a footswitch.

* Accuracy can be affected if film has dents or bulges reducing flatness. PromptScan M2 does not move the camera or film during capture, so need not define the movement precision. Accuracy is defined as the mean deviation of the final pixels from a linear (affine) transform applicable for photogrammetric applications.
