The perfect combination of speed and quality for every imaging application

The Better Light Super 6K-HS produces the ultimate in 
image quality, subject detail and tonal range. It can deliver 
results superior to 8 x 10 inch transparency film in a fraction 
of the time, without consumable costs or processing 
surprises.
The Super 6K-HS features more versatility and performance 
than any other digital camera system. Adjust the image 
resolution level to satisfy any job requirement from volume 
catalog work to fine art reproduction; from close-up jewelry to 
architectural photography.  Boost sensitivity up to ISO 3200 
at any resolution setting, for faster scans with less light. Fine 
tune color balance to provide perfect neutrals using any 
lighting setup, without compromising data integrity.  
Record first-generation digital images with perfect, 
uninterpolated pixel data up to 6000 x 8000 pixels (274 MB 
48-bit RGB file). Or, choose Enhanced Resolution™ settings 
up to 9000 x 12000 pixels (618 MB), to produce larger file

sizes from cropped images, or to increase scanning 
resolution to avoid moiré patterns. Unlike post-capture 
interpolation, these Enhanced Resolution settings record 
additional image information during the scan, for sharper, 
more detailed images. 
Work with your existing 4x5 view camera and lenses, in the 
studio or on location. Focus and compose normally on the 
ground glass and insert the Better Light scan back just like 
a film holder. Use any continuous light source, including 
daylight, HID, fluorescent, HMI or tungsten; line-frequency 
flicker rejection even allows the use of standard 
magnetic-ballast fluorescent or HMI lights. Easy-to-use 
camera software enhances productivity and keeps your 
attention on creativity in front of the lens. Rapid prescans 
provide accurate feedback about image composition and 
exposure, allowing each image to be quickly adjusted to 
a level of perfection well beyond the capabilities of film.
