The Blackmagic Design Cintel Scanner G3 HDR+ 8/16 is a complete solution for real-time film scanning and grading. It features precision mechanical film handling components and a high-intensity light source. The precision capstans present in the earlier model of the scanner are retained to handle film gently.
The scanner, which is specifically designed to scan 8mm to HD and 16mm to UHD digital formats, includes both 8mm and 16mm film gates and DaVinci Resolve Studio software. The scanner transfers film directly to DaVinci Resolve via Thunderbolt connectivity to either macOS or Windows systems, allowing you to edit film rolls back together, grade and reframe scans, apply noise reduction, and extract audio. The ability to use DaVinci Resolve to operate the scanner ensures more creative control than possible with a hardware-only control solution.
