"diTTo" from CINTEL Now available from D.I. Film Co.

D.I. Film Co. endorses "diTTo" as the Data-Centric Super 2K and 4K film Scanner to suit the SCRATCH workflow. We are proud to be able to present this modern film/data/workflow technology to Southern Africa.

diTTo, a Super 2K & 4K data scanning system has been developed specifically for high quality efficient film scanning. The versatility of diTTo means it is suited for all applications from high end DI and special effects through to archiving and restoration.
diTTo uses cutting edge digital film acquisition technology to ensure the highest image quality and repeatability, diTTo utilises a 3 colour light source and solid state low noise detection device to produce high resolution, repeatable results. diTTo incorporates a PC GUI to make the management of the scanning process and the delivery of the image files a straightforward process.

diTTo uses cutting edge technology in a unique, space saving ‘desktop' design, making it easy to accommodate at very little extra cost. Dedicated research and development has not only given diTTo its stunning appearance but also offers ease of operator use that is second to none

diTTo D/SCO – Dust/Scratch Concealment Option The diTTo Dust/Scratch Concealment Option (D/SCO) provides 2 main features which operate at full diTTo over-sampled ‘Super’2K resolution:

1. A D/SCO control which will allow a user controllable amount of ‘optical’ correction at the scanner itself. This new technology does not use the traditional infra-red channel and therefore works with all film emulsions including Black and White stock. The control is similar to the renowned ‘Oliver’ solid-state wet gate available on the Cintel C-Reality and DSX data-cines, and allows the visibility of dust, scratches and film grain to be optimised. This correction does not substitute the defective pixel but instead captures the missing light and restores it to the image.

2. D/SCO also provides the ability to output a ‘defect map’ of dust and scratches in the Alpha channel of a DPX file so that downstream software packages can work more efficiently. Software packages such as The Foundry ‘Forge’, MTI ‘Correct’ and Pixel Farm ‘PFClean’, amongst others can use a ‘defect map’ to help pin point exactly where dust and scratches are on the film frame thus providing a faster and more accurate ‘clean up’.
