Digital Ice Technology

Sophisticated Photo Repair and Restoration

Digital Ice is a sophisticated optical technology that virtually "sees through" all dust and scratches to produce an almost flawless digital image. Normally, the process of scanning involves capturing color information using red, green, and blue channels (RGB). With Digital Ice the scanner beams an infrared light that passes through the film's emulsion, but gets blocked by dust, scratches, and other defects. This fourth channel generates a defect mask that enables the scanner to repair the image locally instead of applying global changes that blur the image (typical software fix). The process does not affect the film in any way.
