Cinelab London Completes Installation Of DFT 4K HDR Scanity

News Image
Cinelab London has installed the Digital Film Technology (DFT) 4K HDR Scanity.

The firm has completed the installation of a new DFT Scanity 4K HDR scanner, alongside a 300TB Pixit Media Pixstor SAN, which creates a high-tech and unmatched capability in film scanning for both new and archive film projects.

Adrian Bull, managing director and co-founder, said: "The revival of film is no doubt in part due to the demand for 4K and HDR which, as an acquisition format, film delivers with ease. The addition of the Scanity 4K HDR film scanner to our comprehensive line-up will assist in delivering on projects where a 'scan once' approach is preferred, particularly where a VFX intensive feature may want to work with 2K or 4K images from the start of production."

Simon Carter, sales and marketing director for DFT, said: "DFT is delighted that Cinelab London have chosen Scanity 4K HDR for its facility. Scanity has been specifically designed to manage the accurate digitisation of film – whether as part of a fast and precise 'scan once' process during film production, or in the gentle handling and scanning of aged and treasured materials during film restoration."
