  1. I hate to bust your HDR Bubble. But HDR is an outdated offer. 2 people on this thread told me and both I respect highly. Alot of the negative feedback of the archivist. I bet NONE have ever had or seen scans or even in person has seen anything too do with the archivist. I have touched and seen scans from the archivist. And the scans are exquisite and beautiful.
  2. I am striving to aquire a Lasergraphics archivist scanner. I have gotten a quote with all the features I need is at $70,000. I at this time have a MARK II and ordered the 4k upgrade kit. I love the MARK II but the work flow is slow. The Lasergraphics archivist scanner will speed up the work flow and the overall resolution and definition will surpass the MARK II. Not too mention the rock solid scans. I'm not worried about a wet gate system. The Filmfabriek HDR + is touted as the best quality scanner on the market. But that may or may not be true. I know the industry all points to the Lasergraphics as a starting bench mark. The Lasergraphics line of scanners are a step above the filmfabriek scanner. But I have seen some fabulous scans from the filmfabriek scanner. But for me in 18 to 24 months I'm purchasing the Lasergraphics archivist scanner.
  3. I had both the new ventura images scanners. I personally had a lot of issues with them. The customer service is okay. But 99% of the time when there were problems you had to mail the scanner back. I live in Texas there located in Canada. It takes 4 to 6 weeks or longer to get your scanner back and the postage both ways is over $350. For the price for a ventura images vs a Mark ll and i have a Mark ll the Mark ll with new 4k upgrade kit is by far better than anything that ventura images can do. But I'm going to purchase a Lasergraphics archivist scanner in about 16 months. My website is www.speakeasyarchives.com
  4. What does a service contract cost for a Lasergraphics archivist scanner?
  5. I was privileged to scan some films using the archivist both 16mm and 8mm. The quality is phenomenal on both formats. It's rock solid no shaky scans. It handles like a champ on a sprocket issue film. I see on some of the posts on the archivist that are not very good. All I can say is they really don't know what there talking about. I'm getting my own archivist in 12 months or so. 2 thumbs up on the quality of the Lasergraphics archivist scanner.
