UK manufacturer Filmlight has developed a new dual-gauge version of its successful Northlight film scanner that will now scan 16mm as well as 35mm film.

Originally introduced in February last year as a 35mm scanner for feature films, the Northlight has proved so popular that the company decided to introduce a modified product for the television drama and documentary market.

The Northlight is a serious alternative to a telecine machine and offers a high-quality scan but at a much slower speed, making it particularly suitable for any programme or film that requires extensive effects work or grading.
