Capture Intricate Detail
Imacon scanners boast a maximum resolution of 8000 dpi for 35mm film, ensuring you capture every intricate detail within your negatives.

They can also deliver the detail and quality needed for creating stunning enlargements up to 20×24 inches.

Important Considerations
While Imacon scanning offers significant advantages, it’s essential to be aware of its specific requirements. Unlike flatbed scanners, Imacon scanners require precise film cutting to accommodate the scanning process. Additionally, for optimal color fidelity when scanning negatives, providing color reference materials is highly recommended.
