Rolleis latest scanners
Hamburg, 1 September 2010 Rollei will be presenting a whole new generation of slide and photo scanners at the IFA and Photokina trade shows this year. As the market leader in this product segment in Germany, Rollei is continuing to focus on versatile, easy-to-use scanners that stand out thanks to high scanning speeds. Photo treasures from the past can thus be digitalised quickly and easily. Rollei is celebrating its 90th anniversary this year, and introducing some new special edition scanners with an extended range of accessories to mark this special occasion. This includes additional trays for holding negatives, slides or photos. These accessories increase convenience while making the fast digitalisation of photos even easier. The latest highlight in Rolleis scanner portfolio is the DF-S 190 SE with a 9-megapixel sensor and a scan resolution of 3600 dpi, which provides photo fans with exceptionally detailed digital images. In addition to colour negatives and loose slides, the DF-S 190 SE, which includes a 2.4-inch colour display, can also scan framed slides. And thanks to the special scanning tray, up to 20 slides per minute can be digitalised. In order to ensure optimal scan results, both exposure and colour balance can be manually adjusted.
