The default scanning resolution is 1000dpi, additional resolution options are listed below.
Notice: Higher scanning resolutions result in greater scanning time and hard disk space
requirements.
b. Color Depth
Choose between 8 and 16 bit. A higher color depth setting will result
in a larger range of colors in the final scanned image.
c. The Film Scanner color depth is 48 bit true color
The scanning software has the capability of selecting 8 bit color mode or 16 bit
color mode when scanning, This will produce 24 or 48 bit color images, 8 bits or 16
bits per Red, Green and Blue color channels
Example:
8 bit mode = 8 Red, 8 Green, and 8 Blue for a total of 24 bit color
16 bit mode = 16 Red, 16 Green, and 16 Blue for a total of 48 bit color
Scan Mode – Normal mode produces a scan in jpeg
format while Quality produces a non-compressed,
“loss-less” TIFF image.
NOTE: Make sure there is enough space available on the
computer when changing the Scanning Resolution. A high
scanning resolution results in large fi les that may prove difficult
to save.
