4K scanner with 35mm Wetgate

[@Pioneers_Of_Cinema]

That's a great advancement for the old Rank- no doubt a solid reliable scanner.

[@Capturing-Memories]

Does this scan the film line by line or a full frame flash?

Do you still have PCI boards to capture the data stream from Cintel C-Reality machines?

[@cinepost]

We never owned a c-reality. What is the output/input you are needing?

[@GregorPQ]

@@cinepost Output is a 100-way AMP connector. The PCI board should have the same connector. This is what the manual says: "The 2k buffer board is mounted on the PCB M102504. The input signals are converted from TTL to LVDS and fed via a 100-way AMP connector to the C-Reality rear termination panel. Another 100-way connector carries the data to a monitoring box where it can be viewed on a progressive scanned monitor. The same data is also passed to a PCI board currently mounted within an SGI Octane." As it is a data signal I suppose the conversion to DPX files is done by the PC via the scanning software?

@@GregorPQ reach out to [e-mail] who still services that machine.

@@cinepost Thank you!

Is the Blackmagic option a better alternative?

[@cinepost]

Peter Olejnik for some people it definitely is. Our setup is driven by wanting to continue the use of our Wetgates which has not been seen with Blackmagic machines.

What's this? A Rank Cintel mkIII?

[@cinepost]

The Rank Cintel Transport has been fitted with a 4k camera and 4k recording system....

[@northernplacecorporation]

@@cinepost What!? A UHD camera and recording system!? But it was Standard definition only!
