Equipment:
- Phase One iXH 150 MP Camera
- Phase One SK 72MM MKII iXH-RS Lens
- DT Autocolumn 2300
- Systematic Automation Vacuum Easel
- TTI LED Lights
Software: CaptureOne CH (Cultural Heritage)
Features: Digital Services currently uses the Phase One iXH 150 MP camera system paired with a Phase One SK 72mm MKII iXH-RS lens for high-resolution digitization.
The camera and lens system is mounted on a DT Autocolumn 2300 mechanized column, which provides precise vertical movement and supports capture resolutions ranging from approximately 300 to 1200 dpi, depending on item size and project requirements.
How we use it: Materials are typically mounted on a Systematic Automation vacuum easel to ensure stability and flatness during capture. Illumination is provided by TTI LED lighting, delivering even, color-accurate lighting suitable for preservation-quality imaging.
