The 19-48X optical zoom range lens is designed for the viewing and digital capture of 16mm microfiche and microfilm images that were originally legal or letter size documents.
Engineering & large format 35mm images can be viewed and partially captured with the MIC2 (see additional pictures for view of 35mm newspaper onscreen using the MIC2 with snap on carrier), but if your images are wide format (Aperture Cards with engineering drawings and 35mm Roll Film), the Micro-Image Capture 5 or Micro-Image Capture 5M (motorized) which are equippeed with an optical zoom range of 7-48x are best equipped for full frame capture of large format images.
Fast and easy adjustment of magnification and focus is achieved via precision high quality optics and mechanical camera stage.
Capture software provides for many adjustments to image quality like contrast, brightness, and resolution as well as optical flip, rotate and invert (neg to pos). Send images instantly to your printer, e-mail or to a designated pc folder with one keystroke. Our exclusive multiple output functionality allows for printing, save as image file, e-mail, & ftp outputs that can be configured to activate simultaneously!
Output image format types include PDF, TIFF, JPG, PNG, PSD, BMP, CAL, GIF, CAL, WPG and more.
Our multiple capture options allow for full screen capture, frame capture area selection by mouse drag and multiple capture of selected areas on the same image that combine automatically on one page for print, save or e-mail output functions. Software also allows for real time recording of microfilm viewing (genealogy & research presentations) and comes with an OCR function you can use post capture.
The unit comes standard with a fiche carrier, but we offer an optional manual roll film attachment that is rugged and easy to add making the unit a universal, allowing for both fiche and roll film to be loaded.
