Imager HSR is brought to you by IMAGICA, Japan's leading motion picture products and services company. With over 70 years of experience caring for your images, the IMAGICA name has become synonymous with quality, efficiency, and service. That tradition continues today as we combine cutting edge engineering with application experience to bring world class products to the digital film imaging market.

Productivity

Whether transferring video projects to film, shooting VFX sequences, or recording 2000 foot DI reels for release printing, Imager HSR offers unparalleled productivity. Exposing intermediate film stocks at 3 frames per second, Imager HSR will complete your deadline sensitive recording jobs faster - improving your imaging department's efficiency and your company's bottom line.
Image Quality

IMAGICA's long history in motion picture digital imaging products testifies to our understanding of the needs of film post-production houses aroundthe world. Chief among these is unquestionable image quality in your film output.
Imager HSR delivers in all the critical areas including:
Exposure Range and Stability
Plenty of LED illumination and a high contrast modulator means crisp, clean exposures across the entire dynamic density range of color intermediate film stocks. An internal exposure control calibration insures consistent results from the beginning of a reel to the end, and from one reel to the next.
Field Uniformity
Integrated into the driver electronics, electronic Flat Field Correction (FFC) insures consistent, even exposure across the 35mm frame.
Modulation Transfer Function (MTF)
An important component of perceived sharpness, high MTF performance is critical to satisfying the increasing quality demands of your digital film customers. That means less digital sharpening and clean, crisp high contrast edges. Imager HSR brings you 2k MTF that noticeably outperforms the competition.
Geometry
Imager HSR's area array imager, custom optics, and precise opto-mechanical alignments work together to insure your images are perfectly sized, positioned, and focused frame after frame after frame.
Ease of Use
Offering a convenient touch screen operator panel at the recorder and an intuitive graphical user interface, even novice operators can quickly master the Imager HSR.
With the support of our highly experienced field engineers, IMAGICA insures quick integration into your facility's pipeline, effective training of your operators, and world class technical support and repairs.
Image Processing

Each Imager HSR is delivered with the Pre-Processor 1100(PP-1100). Based on a
fast dual processor Windows PC, the PP-1100 attaches to your network
or SAN. It handles all user assigned image processing tasks (such as
cropping and scaling) as it sends your images to the Imager HSR for
recording.
Robustness
An optical system with less than a dozen parts, none of them moving. Stable and long life LED illumination. Defect free LCOS
panels. Simple and reliable pin-registered film movement. Film magazines without motors.
All of these contribute to an imaging system you can rely on under the tightest of deadlines. Requiring far less maintenance than
other film recording systems, you can count on Imager HSR to be busy recording film and generating revenue, instead of being
repaired and adjusted!
