First-Class Film Scanning Technology from Minolta
Class-leading 5400dpi optical resolution
The DiMAGE Scan Elite 5400 is the first consumer film scanner to offer such a high level of optical resolution, enough to capture virtually all the details of a 35mm film frame. The amount of data you can obtain is astounding. An image scanned at maximum resolution can be enlarged to the equivalent of an A1-size printout at a high-quality inkjet setting (200dpi). And for A4-size output, print quality exceeds 600dpi.

Newly-developed Minolta optics
To maximize the performance of its 3-line CCD sensor, the DiMAGE Scan Elite 5400 features sophisticated new optics from Minolta. The lens incorporated in the scanner has 8 elements in 4 groups.

Enhanced clarity through multi-sample scanning & 16-bit A/D
Random noise may appear in a digital image if the film original has significant dark areas. But because the DiMAGE Scan Elite 5400 is able to sample your film 2, 4, 8 or 16 times, it can gather the data it needs to produce the clearest scan possible. And this data is considerable. 16-bit A/D conversion enables the scanner to distinguish over 65,000 hues in each of its three color channels. This feature, together with an extensive 4.8 (computed) dynamic range, ensures that the DiMAGE Scan Elite 5400 captures an unmatched degree of shadow area detail.

*Scanning times will be longer when multi-sample scanning is used.
*16-bit color data can only be processed with compatible application software. Convert data to 8-bit for printouts.

*Noise has been emphasized for illustrative purposes. Quality scans can in fact be obtained without the use of multi-sample scanning.

100% frame coverage
Make sure that every single part of your photographs gets scanned. The 35mm filmstrip holder included with the DiMAGE Scan Elite 5400 is designed to prevent any obstruction of the 24 x 36 mm area containing the film image.

Grain Dissolver
Higher resolution means greater detail--and sometimes, even details you don't want to see. To suppress the visibility of film grain, the DiMAGE Scan Elite 5400 is equipped with Minolta's Grain Dissolver technology, a hardware-based solution that is conveniently fast. Grain Dissolver can be turned on or off as you please. It is automatically activated when you use Digital ICE, and helps improve results with scratch and dust removal.
