The MegaVision E/Z Series of digital backs
are the industry's first film-equivalent resolution digital backs designed
explicitly for institutional portrait photography. These digital backs
are ideal where image quality, robustness, reliability, ease of use, and
life-cycle costs are important considerations. The E Series backs are
designed for sustained heavy use where reliability is critical, and where
consistent image quality is demanded from one or a fleet of deployed units.
The E Series backs are available for Camerz ZII/ZIII cameras and for
most other long rollfilm cameras. No modification to the camera is
required. The E/Z back simply replaces the film back. A film back may
be readily interchanged with the digital back. E/Z Series backs attach
to the camera by means of interchangeable adapter plates, so that an E/Z
series back may be interchanged between a ZII and most medium format camera
bodies.
E/Z Series backs are available in two resolutions: 6 Megapixel
and 11 Megapixel.
The 6 Megapixel E/Z-32 is 3,000 X 2,000 pixels, and the 11Megapixel E/Z-427
is 4,000 X 2,700 pixels.
The image area of both FB models is the same as 35mm film---24mm
X 36mm. Since this is smaller than the image area of some ZII film sizes,
special focusing masks are supplied to facilitate framing and focusing.
Custom head-size masks are also available.
An OLPF (optical low pass filter) is included in the E/Z Series
backs to eliminate moiré. E/Z Series backs are also available without
the OLPF if additional sharpness is desired.
The E/Z connects directly to a host computer via IEEE 1394 (Firewire)
interface. Captured images are immediately available for review in
the host computer. Power to the E/Z is normally supplied through the Firewire
interface, so only a single cable is required for connection to a computer.
TheE/Z Series include auxiliary power input so that laptops (such as OQO's
Model 1) which do not supply IEEE 1394 power may be used together with
an auxiliary FirePower battery, FirePower SnapPac, or power adapter.
Photoshoot 4software is available for Windows 2000 and Windows XP
(both Professional and Home editions). A customized version of MegaVision's
PhotoShoot software for capturing school and other institutional pictures
is available for end users, and a Software Developers Kit is available
for software application developers. MegaVision's software is compatible
with bar code scanners and school picture database software to automate
such tasks as student ID/image association.
Why a Digital Camerz, when you can buy a 35mm digital camera for less?
