Technical Details for Microtek Artixscan 2500

Microtek Artixscan 2500 ... x 14". Hi-resolution and 3.4 Dmax With 10000 element CCD, ArtixScan 2500 is capable of producing superb quality transparent and reflective scans at up to 2500 dpi true optical resolution.

The 36-bit input and output capacity and an optical dynamic range of 3.4 enables capturing every detail in highlight and shadow areas. E.D.I.T. (Emulsion Direct Imaging Technology). The Microtek's patented E.D.I.T. technology, a technological milestone for the development of high-end scanners, enables the CCD lens to read directly from the emulsion side of the film without any glass between the lens and the scanned image. By adopting E.D.I.T., the CCD sensor is able to capture the most realistic image without distortion, render the full dynamic range from the image and provide the optimal results with sharp details. The result is superb quality. Enriched and more accurate color values. No refracted light. No Newton rings - those annoying concentric circles that appear in scanned images when film is sandwiched between two panes of glass.
