What is Intelligent Image Detection?

Software that finds frames

Intelligent Image Detection is the frame recognition that tells the scanner where each image starts and ends. It analyzes the live picture from your camera, positions the frame under the lens, and corrects small offsets before the shutter fires. It is software, so it gets faster and more accurate with every update.

Designed and tested on real film by photographers who shoot it every week.
