DFT Polar HQ scans up to a maximum of 9.3K resolution in native RGB.
DFT, the provider of high-end film scanning solutions that preserves, manages and delivers pristine film quality, in archives and post-production facilities worldwide, will be showing its newest 8K film scanner, DFT Polar HQ, alongside its brand new Smart Motion WetGate at NAB Show 2023, which is scheduled to take place from April 15 to 19.
At NAB, DFT Polar HQ will demonstrate 35mm and 16mm film scanning capability into a high-quality 8K or Super 4K deliverable. DFT will also unveil a prototype version of the new Smart Motion WetGate, developed for DFT Polar HQ and planned for release in Q3/ 2023.
DFT Polar HQ, which was developed specifically for film archives, scans up to a maximum of 9.3K resolution in native RGB. The scanner has a modular design which can flex and grow as user needs and technology changes over time.
Since the launch of DFT Polar HQ in September 2022, DFT has already delivered three scanners to an archive customer, where the new scanners are connected to the archives’ central WetGate System that currently serves three Scanity film scanners in its daily operations.
The new DFT Polar HQ complements DFT’s established range of film scanners, suitable for a wide range of uses: the flagship Scanity HDR; the large format OXScan 14K; and Sondor Versa with Resonances for film audio capture.
