#PHOTOIMPRESSION 4 DISPLAY SIZE DRIVER#
Here, one clicks on "Install the driver automatically" - and exactly this will happen. Once the CD is removed from the drive and the scanner is connected, a window appears with the message that the new hardware has been found. After that, one installs the ArcSoft PhotoImpression 6 that is also included in the scope of delivery by a simple click.īefore one connects the scanner by USB 2.0 to the PC, the CD has to be taken out of the drive - otherwise, the initiation of the scanner does not work and by trying to scan one gets an error message. First, the twain-driver is installed by simply putting the attached CD in the drive and choosing the driver installation. The installation of the Reflecta x²-Scan is done in the same way as most of the other USB devices.

Thus, Reflecta did also not make a professional device from the x²-Scan, a thing that was also not to expect.
#PHOTOIMPRESSION 4 DISPLAY SIZE ARCHIVE#
Thus, already due to the nominal data of the producer, one should not expect too much from the image quality of this device.Īs it is the case of its antecessor, the Reflecta x²-Scan is not a scanner for the professional archive of slides or negatives but rather a device to get the images into the PC in a fast and easy way and for example, to view them on the PC screen or to public them on the internet.
And an automatical dust and scratches corrector as ICE or iSRD is technically of course also not possible. By the maximum density of 3,0 Dmax, a density of approximately 2,5 can be concluded this is much too less for getting all the details in the shades and lights. By scanning a realistic image area with the maximum optical resolution of 1800 ppi, then, approximately 4 megapixel are left. But also in case of the x²-Scan there is to apply: according to the technical data of the producer, one cannot expect a professional image quality. The price is the same as the xScan and therewith sensationally cheap for such a fast filmscanner. With the x²-Scan, Reflecta brought a complete solution for the digitalization of film material with the support of the digital camera - technique into the market. Also the technical data did not change(colour depth 24 bit, resolution 5 megapixel, USB 2.0 connection) and clearly talk the talk of a digital camera. Therewith, this mini-scanner is more than 100 times faster than some professional filmscanners.
This works perfectly with the brush and without damaging the glass.Īccording to the description of the producer, the scanning velocity is, as it was already the case in the xScan, not more than a second for each image. Due to its position, the sensor that is right under the orifice for the film holders, is hardly protected against the dust, so that the brush is oftenly needed to clean the sensor. It consists on a plastic holder with a material similar to microfibre at the end that is very soft and therewith very gentle to glass and absorbs dust lints or similar things.ĭuring the use of the scanner, the brush results to be a very practical and, in the particular case of this device, also necessary accessoire. There is no need to have an electricity cable and/or power supply, as the scanner is provided with electricity through the USB connection.Īn unusual accessoire for a scanner is the brush that is included in the scope of delivery for cleaning the glass plate in front of the sensor in the interior of the device. The USB-connecting cable is firmly fixed to the device.

This instruction manual is also sent in form of a small book in the languages German, English, French, Italian, Spanish and Dutch.
#PHOTOIMPRESSION 4 DISPLAY SIZE SOFTWARE#
The attached CD contains exactly the same software as the former model xScan: the twain-driver software, the programe for the image processing and image viewing ArcSoft PhotoImpression 6, the Adobe ® Acrobat Reader as also the handling instructions. Thus, with the scanner, one gets a film holder for a film strip of small format images with up to 6 images and a filmholder for up to 3 framed slides. The equipment of the Reflecta x²-Scan is small but complete.
Equipment, accessoires and performance data of the film scanner In the following test report we want to show how the scan quality has improved in comparison with the old xScan and if the device can compete with the scanners of common function. This scanner was removed from the market in December 2009.
