Using Your Scanner; Wind Types - Blackmagic Design Cintel Manual De Instalación Y Funcionamiento

The focus assist feature works best when using negative film types, as negative is
generally sharper with the most grain detail.
To get the most from the focus assist feature, set the viewer to full resolution. Simply
click on the options settings at the top right corner of the viewer and select 'Full
Resolution Preview' from the menu.
It's worth mentioning that full resolution preview will remain set until you choose to
disable it. The setting is very GPU intensive and can affect the performance of the
viewer, for example there may be some frame lag, so it may be helpful to use full
resolution for checking focus, then turning it off for better performance.
9 Closing the Scanner Doors
For the best quality scan we recommend closing your scanner's sliding doors.
The doors are designed to gently close when they are almost shut, so all you need
to do is slide them towards each other until you feel the spring mechanism take over.
When closed, the doors will block any light from entering the film gate.
Your scanner's high quality light source eliminates light pollution in all but the most
brightly lit workspaces. Because film is quite shiny it can reflect lights in the ceiling
which may show up as blotches in your capture. You can avoid this by keeping the
scanner doors shut while scanning.
Now that you have laced your film, set the tension, focused your image and closed the scanner
doors, you can start capturing!
Please refer to the Cintel section of the DaVinci Resolve reference manual for details on
calibrating the light source, setting the stabiliser, and the capture palette settings for capturing
images. The DaVinci reference manual also details how to sync optical audio and shows how
you can manage your capture files when scanning.
If you are looking for information on how to maintain and service your scanner, including
detailed information about your scanner's technical specifications, refer to the 'Servicing'
and 'Specifications' sections near the end of this manual.

Wind Types

The 'wind type' refers to the loading and unloading position, as well as the turn direction of film
on your scanner's feeding and taking spools. As you can see in the diagram below, an 'A' wind
refers to film loading/unloading from the top of the spool, while a B type loads or unloads from
the bottom. This is true for both the feeding and taking spools.
