Raw Sight

Panagiotis Lamprou created Raw Sight for the digitization, archiving, processing and production of modern analogue image. The use of photographic film continues after the digital technological development. Film still has qualities that digital equipment can not reach technically or is disproportionately expensive in cost. In photography visual experience and understanding of the working materials is required in order to highlight the color and the quality that the photographer wishes to achieve. Our workshop serves to digitise (scan) photographic files. We provide friendly tips for maintaining analog files and let you know about their technical digitisation solutions. We work with the Scantif Flextight X5, the Hasselblad highlight tool in serving its public. Its technical features are- Optical sensor : CCD Original type : Neg/Pos/Prints και Reflection: A4 - Film format: 100×280 mm - Color depth: 16 bit - Dmax: 4,93 F scan initiated directly on scanner : Yes - Flextouch: Yes - Auto focus: Yes - Batch scanning: Yes • 35mm Single Frame / 35mm Panoramic (X-Pan) • 4,5×6 / 6×6 / 6×7 / 6×9 / 6×12 / 6×17 • 4″×5″ • Α4 At full resolution (16-Bit, ppi), X5 produces Full frame, uncompressed file of approximately 400MB. It is the best quality for demanding uses, exhibition prints and printed use. The Raw File of the Scanner is and technically allows us to process it, while maintaining the original image as a Digital Negative. This keeps the maximum range of image tonality, color and brightness for every possible processing. The Magnum Photographic Agency, The Louvre Museum, Tate Gallery are some of the influential designers currently using the Flextight X5 for its unique qualities.
