Key features:
The new generation of Hasselblad scan-
ners, the Flextight X1 and X5, are both
built around the same foundation. A
vertical optical system allows the CCD
to face downwards, creating a glass-
free optical path between the original
and the lens. The patented virtual drum
solution produces optimal focusing
across the entire original and the flex-
ible holder guarantees easy mounting
and safe and secure handling of your
originals. The components used in both
Flextight scanners are basically the
same, meaning that whichever solution
you choose, the quality level is virtually
identical. Differences between the
models are more a matter of features
and capabilities, especially with regards
to productivity. The freedom not to have to choose
between digital or film, for instance. The
freedom to use whatever capture medium
works best for a particular shoot or situ-
ation. And whether you choose to shoot
film because the elements are against
you or for creative reasons, with the new
generation of Hasselblad scanners you
know that you’ll be able to get your imag-
es safely into the digital world – wherever
they began – with every subtle detail
embedded in your negs and chromes
accurately reproduced.
Hasselblad scanners:
freedom from choice
Same, same, but different
Naturally, the extraordinary scanning
speed of the Flextight X5 plays a key
part in increasing your productivity.
The benefits don’t stop there, however.
Various feeding devices, for example,
can be attached; the Batch Feeder for
mixed originals and the Slide Feeder for
scanning of mounted slides. Using these
devices together with the 3F workflow
produces a throughput that has to be
seen to be believed.
