Choice2K+™
The flashtransfer Choice2K+™ is:
•
•
•
•
A cost effective model that can transfer 8mm, Super8,9.5mm and 16mm formats at 2K+™ resolution
For users whose need a machine capable of working 24/7 to maintain transfer throughput.
Normally operated at real time speeds (IE 24 or 25 fps), but can run much slower for brittle or damaged film.
Speedy! TURBO MODE for 1280 x 720p/50 fps: 10 minutes to capture a half-hour reel of 8mm/Super8!
The transfer process is simple, and non-technical people can produce good results with nominal training:
• Adjust rollers and laser as needed for 8mm/Super8, 9.5mm, 16, or optionally, 17.5 or 28mm film.
• Load film and press “SCAN” mode.
• Set initial adjustments: Zoom, Focus, Pan, Framing, Color and picture adjustments, audio levels.
✓ Waveform monitor, vectorscope and audio meters are built into software for picture and sound adjustments.
✓ “Look Ahead” Auto Light and Auto White modes allow easy setup on well exposed film. The Look Ahead function then
anticipates needed adjustments and makes them just when the change hits the gate. Eliminates or reduces periods of over/
underexposed frames at extreme exposure changes!
✓ NEW TIMELINE-BASED COLOR CORRECTION makes frame-accurate color and other settings changes happen at in- points you
mark. Fast and Easy.
• Select Codec and File Output parameters in AgiScan3 software.
• Hit CAPTURE to start transport and capture of film to file.
T The live picture/live adjustment capability makes the Vario2K+™ an even more practical workflow.
• Live picture is present within the software for quality control during transfer.
• Live picture window can be moved over to a second monitor (using extended Windows desktop).
• Live adjustments of color, framing, etc. are possible while film is running and capture is taking place.
• LIVE HD-SDI OUTPUT enables monitoring and color grading on a grading-quality monitor with accurate picture and sound.
• Recording the HD-SDI output is possible at specific film/sensor-to-file frame rates, making simultaneous proxy file creation
possible.
Codecs and Wrappers that are part of the workflow:
• Run film, capturing each film frame to 4:4:4 Linear RGB 10 -bit or 12-bit DPX files, as 16-bit TIFF files or as an
“uncompressed” 4:2:2 YUV or MJPEG AVI file.
• ProRes and AVID DNxHD are options.
• New Lossless Reversible JPEG 2000 Codec option. Others in the pipeline. Ask flashscan8.us
Real-time image processing means quick work for users:
• With real-time de-Bayering of the sensor’s image, you have :
• Immediate use of file after capture.
• Files can be written to user SAN storage with fast pipeline from workstation to SAN.
• No waiting for processing a RAW file after capture.
• No waiting to re-write the processed file to disc.
Benefits from MWA pioneered, patented and proven Laser- based perforation detection system:
•
•
•
•
Sprocket- free, claw-free film path at NO EXTRA COST!
Continuous motion capstan drive system for gentle film handling.
Works with damaged film, damaged sprocket holes, significantly reducing pre-transfer repairs and time involved.
Handles Shrinkage: Up to 4% dynamically with Laser Shrinkage Detector (LSD) technology invented by MWA.
• LSD makes it possible to transfer shrunken sprocketed magnetic sound film (SepMag) using the Choice2K
+™ and then easily sync sound to picture.
Other MWA Choice2K+™ Benefits that save time:
• Long-life, flashing multiple-RGB LED array light source with adjustable color enables time-saving “Front End
Color Correction” at time of transfer, cuts “fix it in post” operations.
• Makes “De-Pinking” faded film easier, and film more watchable at time of transfer.
• Straight-through optical path: No mirrors to gather dust or create ghost images
• Optical scratch concealment with diffused light.
• Adjustable optical sound heads for optimization of sound track quality, less to do “in post.”
• Sound heads are easy-on, easy off, including 16mm magnetic and optical sound, 8mm/Super8 Magnetic (2 ch.)
• Bi-Phase output makes it possible to synchronize other machines such as sound film transports to the Choice2K+
transport, for simultaneous transfer of separate picture and sound elements.
