Fine Art Reproduction

Digital Transitions has specialized in art reproduction for over 15 years. Building on our experiences supplying our solutions to famous museums around the world, we are able to provide image capture systems optimized for the Fine Art Reproduction Market. Let us share our decades of experience outfitting the most demanding digitizing facilities in the world.

Scanbacks were the mainstay of fine art reproduction for decades, because they were the only option available to achieve the high resolution required for art reproduction and output printing. In the decades since, advances in high density sensors, lighting, software, and lenses make our medium format digital camera backs the perfect replacement for these legacy systems.

We offer several solutions that range from retrofitting and upgrading components of your current setup to turn-key solutions.

  • Retrofit Your Betterlight: If you already do art reproduction with a view camera with a scanback mounted we can provide the appropriate adapter and digital back to transform your legacy view camera into a modern capture system.
  • Upgrade Your DSLR: If you’ve used a general-purpose dSLR for fine art reproduction you’re already aware of their strong limitations and frustrations. We will take your DSLR as a trade in where it can be used by someone for which these cameras were designed (e.g. wedding, reportage and sports photographers).
  • Upgrade Your Digital Back: We can accept Leaf, Hasselblad, Sinar, Megavision, and other digital backs in on trade.
  • New Turnkey Solution: If you’re starting a Fine Art Repro business from scratch you’ve come to the right place. We can provide all the hardware (camera, lenses, software, lighting, camera stands) as well as the setup, training, and support you’ll need to get started.
