While we forge ahead into a new era of digital imaging, millions upon millions of hours of unseen film, containing the world’s heritage, sit on the shelves of archives across the globe. The digitisation of these priceless film assets requires precision engineered scanners for which we are delighted to partner with and offer the solutions of MWA, the German engineering pioneer and manufacturer of some of the film industry’s best loved products. In 2020 MWA celebrated an incredible 100 years of research, design and manufacturing for the film industry, with the introduction of the brand new ranges of Spinner and Flashscan Nova for film image review, scanning and magnetic and optical sound track digitisation. The new ranges address virtually every need of a Film Archive’s requirement to digitise their assets to the latest formats and standards.
