Abstract
Our industry is changing at a dramatic pace. SD video is giving way to HD and data; linear videotape is fast being replaced with HD and data disk systems; and digital cinema is purported to be the next revolutionary stage in the visual entertainment field. While HDcam and similar methods are being touted as the future of moving image acquisition, many rightly remain skeptical. Film is still the ultimate image-capture medium and will be for the foreseeable future, as long as scanning techniques preserve its benefits throughout the new post-production and presentation mediums. This paper describes Cintel's view of the future of film scanning and covers SD/HD and high-speed data transfers from 1K through 4K. The subjects encompassed include resolution, bit depth, and image stability.

bio
Peter R. Swinson has been associated with Cintel for nearly 20 years. He joined Rank Cintel Ltd. in 1982 as telecine products manager responsible for development of the URSA family of telecines and the Klone 4K CCD scanner. Presently, at Cintel International, he is director of market development, involved in the introduction and evolution of C-Reality and Rascal film scanners. A firm believer in the future of film as an acquisition material, Swinson has had several patents issued in his name, mainly involved with novel methods of film scanning and film recording. His current interests are D-cinema and full film resolution scanning as a one stop digital archive.
