The Flextight X1 makes the film grain clearly outstand.
The technical data of the Flextight X5 speak a clear language.
For the Flextight X5, Hasselblad offers a wide range of optional accessiores.
But the decisive purchase criterion for a Flextight X1 or a X5 is the speed.
The Flextight X5 is absolutely designed for the fast processing of large image quantities.
But despite of the slightly low maximum density, the Flextight X1 provides the same good results as its bigger brother.
While the Flextight is still able to capture the film details of a maximum density of D=4,9, the maximum density of the X1 is of D=4,6.
Those who want to scan large amounts will need a Flextight X5 in order to achieve a high productivity and capacity.
And due to the expandability of the optional feeders, it is even possible to work in a real batch processing with the Flextight X5.
This is not possible with the Flextight X5- the light condensator that is built in it impedes the scanning of such a large film format.
With the feeders that can be acquired optionally, it is possible to scan up to 50 framed slides in the batch modus with the Flextight X5.
Thus, by scanning with the Hasselblad Flextight X5, the cleaning of the film material previously to the scanning plays a very important role.
The scanning times where detected with the same computer that we also used for the speed test of the Flextight X5.
Does the Flextight X5 provide such a good image quality as the technical data and also the relatively high purchase price do make expect?
In the following, we will observe the image quality as also the scan speed of the Flextight X1, also in comparison to its bigger brother Flextight X5.
Therewith, the Flextight X1 does offer a decisive advantage against its big brother, specially because the large format of 13x18 cm is widely used.
By this way, in case of the scan done by Nikon, some digits of the dial of the clock are blurred,but in the case of the scan dome with the Flextight X5, the digits are clearly readable.
While the Flextight X1 provides a speed of 60 MB/ minute, the Flextight X5 offers a speed that is 5 times faster which is 300 MB/ minute.
Thanks to an indirect illumination dust andscratches are less visible on the scan than by direct illumination like in the Hasselblad Flextight X1.
A Hasselblad Flextight X5, which price lies in the range of 20.000€, scans films with a brilliance and sharpness, which no other film scanner achieves.
If you have highes demands to colour rendering, there are the extremely expensive medium format scanners Nikon Super Coolscan 9000ED orHasselblad Flextight X1 available.
Contrary to many consumer-devices, the scope of delivery of the Flextight X5 does not include any further software as for example an image processing software a la Photoshop® Elements.
While the Flextight X5 can normally digitalize 35-mm slides with a resolution up to 6900 dpi, by applying the slide feeder, the maximal adjustable resolution is reduced to 5000 dpi.
As for the scanning of large format sheet films, except drum scanners onlyflat bed scanners can compete with the Flextight X5, we will compare the results in case of a 4x5"-large format scan with the one of a high quality flad bed scanner Epson Expression 10000XL.
Either the structure of the Flextight X5 as also the one of the X1 have some heat reducing features, as for example the externally arranged power supply and the appliance of a cold-cathode fluorescent tube as a light source.
Thus, the installation and starting up of the Hasselblad Flextight X5 is a very easy matter and is not different to the procedure of most of the other firewire devices.
Moreover, the Flextight X5 is equipped with a light capacitor that emits the light of the cold cathode fluorescent tube, so that even the tiniest dust particles do not appear on the scan, a thing that makes the posterior retouching much easier.
But it is easy to abstain from this feature, as on one hand, the scanning of non-transparent images/documents with the Flextight X5 is quite laborious and on the other hand, the achievable scan quality is not better than the one that results by using a high quality flat bed scanner that only costs a fraction of that what a Hasselblad Flextight costs.
With some effective 6900 dpi, the Flextight X5 can achieve, compared to the 6150 dpi of the Flextight X1, a resolution that is 10% higher in the field of the 35-mm images;
The higher maximum density of the Hasselblad Flextight X5 means that in extremely dark image areas, the differences of brightness can be still captured while other scanners only represent the colour black.
