Seitz D3 Scan Back - 300 MB Per Second - The Digital Revolution In Panoramic Photography

Lustdorf (ots)

Swiss company Seitz Phototechnik AG expands the
current boundaries in digital photography. With the new Seitz D3 scan
back technology it is possible to scan 300 megabytes per second,
making the Seitz D3 sensor 100x faster than any existing scan back.
The new technology allows to create livelydigital images ranging from
medium format, 6x17 panoramas to 360° panoramas in a very short time.
For example, a 160 million pixel 6x17 panorama takes one second,
while a 360° digital 470 million pixel panorama (with 80mm lens) is
captured in approximately 2 seconds. This means: high resolution
images full of speed, motion and life!
Over the last years Seitz has worked closely with specialists of
DALSA Corporation to develop a custom-built scanning sensor - the
first of its kind - specifically for photography. The sensor is based
on time-delay-integration (TDI) technology, allowing a very high
read-out speed and flexible sensivity control by using stages,
smaller or larger areas of the sensor for sensitivity control,
without creating additional noise.  The sensor has a vertical
resolution of 7,500 pixels, which is ideal for using world-class
medium format lenses.  The sensor is built with the latest DALSA
technology, incorporating for example a high dynamic range, 48-bit
colour depth and a powerful anti-blooming feature.
For photokina 2006 Seitz presents three new products based on this
new technology: the Seitz D3 scan back, the Seitz 6x17 Digital and
the Roundshot D3 panorama cameras. The Seitz D3 scan back cassette
can be adapted to the new panorama cameras and - in the future - also
to medium or large format cameras.
The new Seitz Roundshot products will be available as of January
2007. The Seitz D3 scan back is priced at 36'000 Swiss Francs (22'900
Euro). Both the Seitz 6x17 Digital and the Roundshot D3 panorama
camera are available as a mobile version (including a portable
storage device and handheld control unit) and as a studio version.
The Seitz 6x17 Digital including the Seitz D3 scan back costs 45'500
Swiss Francs (28'900 Euro) for the mobile and 42'300 Swiss Francs
(26'900 Euro) for the studio version. The price of the Roundshot D3
panorama camera with Seitz D3 scan back is 46'900 Swiss Francs
(29'800 Euro) for the mobile and 43'700 Swiss Francs (28'800 Euro)
for the studio version.
