The Sinar rePro RC is a unique camera designed specifically for high-end digital reprography. Conveniently remote controlled (hence the RC designation), the Sinar rePro RC has a high-quality stepper motor with two speed levels which correspond to a coarse and a fine focus adjustment. The camera allows for a lateral shift of the image plane, which eliminates reflections. An auxiliary device called the Sinar Parallel enables the camera to be aligned perfectly with the subject, which is a prerequisite for correctly photographing flat art. "The battery powered Sinar Parallel is placed on the capturing table and its laser beam reflects from a mirror on the camera," the company says. "Precise alignment of the camera is achieved when the laser beam exactly hits the middle of the crosshairs of Sinar Parallel." Pricing and availability to be confirmed.

The new Sinar rePro RC (Remote Control)

Unique camera specifically designed for digital high-end reprography

Manufactured in Switzerland with legendary Sinar precision for best quality, the motorized Sinar rePro RC  features increased stability, built-in security, comfortable handling and optimum ease of operation. Specifically developed for the increasing requirements of digitization and archiving, the Sinar rePro RC provides an easy workflow with maximum accuracy – conveniently remote controlled. As a result, a large throughput of photographs can be achieved.

The use of all professional lenses is ensured, lateral shift eliminates reflections, and for mounting the camera on a stand you chose between front or rear standard. The high-quality stepper motor offers two speed levels which correspond to a coarse and a fine focus adjustment, controlled via remote box or via USB with the Sinar CaptureFlow software.

Absolute Parallelism
The basis for the accurate image sharpness is the perfect flatness of the object to be captured and the parallel alignment of the camera. A further novelty provides valuable assistance: Sinar parallel is an excellent device for precise adjustment. The battery powered Sinar parallel is placed on the capturing table and its laser beam reflects from a mirror on the camera. Precise alignment of the camera is achieved when the laser beam exactly hits the middle of the crosshairs of Sinar parallel. The adjustment needs to be done on the camera stand, Sinar offers specific adapter plates for Kaiser and Foba.
