The ArtixScan family of professional scanners
ScanWizardProTX
With a 10,000-element Kodak CCD the ArtixScan 120tf captures
the most minute details in an image. A 6 x 6 cm negative
scanned at 4000 dpi collects over 500MB of data to deliver the
subtle nuances not seen by the naked eye. With this amazing
amount of information, your film can be enlarged to produce
300 dpi prints over 30" wide while retaining razor-sharp detail.
