Blackmagic Design Cintel Scanner 16mm Gate HDR

$1,535.00

The Blackmagic Cintel Scanner 16mm Gate HDR is a precision-engineered, interchangeable optical accessory designed to expand the capabilities of your Cintel film scanner. By seamlessly swapping out the standard 35mm gate for this dedicated module, post-production facilities can instantly transition their workflow to safely digitize standard 16mm and Super 16mm film stocks, capturing the unique cinematic texture of these formats with breathtaking High Dynamic Range (HDR) fidelity.

What makes this specific film gate indispensable for historical preservation and independent film restoration is its exacting mechanical tolerances and gentle film handling. Because 16mm film was the format of choice for decades of television production, documentaries, and indie cinema, preserving these aging reels without damage is paramount. This authentic OEM gate interfaces flawlessly with the Cintel’s sprocketless digital servo system, holding the frames perfectly flat and precisely aligned with the HDR light source to extract maximum resolution and deep shadow detail without risking tears to invaluable physical media.
