ALEXIS Graphic Studios is selling one high end A3 flatbed scanner, with autofocus, the Screen Cezanne Elite FT-S5500 with a Mac host, operating and ColorGenius software.
Cleaned, Lubricated, IT8 calibrated with professional Wolf Faust individually measured targets, with the help of Michael from scansolutionsonline.com
Includes scanner, bed acrylic tray with lock, anr tray for transparencies and tray for reflective originals. Also included are 2 spare original screen lamps, one for reflective, one for transparency and of course the host computer, drivers and colorgenius software. It is delivered ready to scan.
The glass is not flawless, it has some some light scratches and scuffs which will be visible in the scan. However, our favorite way of scanning is of course wet mounting under AZ 42 mylar using either Lumina or Kami SXL scanner liquid which will not only tremendously improve grain rendering but will also completely fill any fine scratches on the glass bed or on the negative.
There have been many A3 flatbed scanners from the likes of Cre-Scitex, Screen, Fuji Lanovia, Heidelberg Nexscan, but the Screen Cezanne Elite is renowned amongst film photographers as being the highest resolving scanner ever made, rivaling many drum scanners as far as resolution is concerned.
Price is 5000 EUR vat included / shipping within continental Europe. Invoice will be provided, payment by bank transfer in advance. We can also agree to a contract before payment.
It will be properly shipped, with the locking mechanism in place and we can also provide assistance in setting up the scanner and getting your first scan.
I will also upload photos soon.
