The Seitz 6x17 Digital can capture several hundred million pixels in a matter of a few seconds. Click on one of our sample images below and zoom in to see the amazing scanning speed, high dynamic range and image quality.
These panoramas have all been taken with the Seitz 6x17 Digital panorama camera with a variety of different lenses and settings, equipped with a new Seitz D3 digital scan back generation 2. Thanks to thinner optical filters this generation 2 back allows better edge-to-edge sharpness. Also, and very importantly, the new electronic shutter makes it possible to photograph with little light and a limited amount of noise. Click on one of the images to zoom in full-screen with zoomify technology. Or download the dng files to work directly on raw data on camera raw (Photoshop) or in Lightroom. For your convenience we also prepared a jpg file (full resolution) for download. To check the raw data (dng) image parameters download a dng metadata viewer such as PhotoMe: www.photome.de | | | Parameters capture (scan) time: 2 seconds

| Technical note This 160 million pixel panorama was captured in just 2 seconds. To freeze the flowing water in the image we selected an exposure speed of 1/200 second. This was achieved by using only one quarter the sensor (TDI Stages: 5x). The tripod was tilted downward into the waterfall to capture
more of the action. What could be a better showcase for the fast scanning speed
and resolution of the Roundshot D3 than a massive waterfall? Compare this panorama as well with the waterfall image created with the Roundshot D3 camera. Both images were created with the same digital scan back - the only difference being the lens and the image format. Photographer: Urs Krebs

| Technical note 6x17 is an excellent format for fine-art photography and landscapes. The high dynamic range of the sensor allows to capture the entire beauty of a sky and the the all-embracing mood in a scene. The resulting prints are massive and are 60x170 cm at 300 dpi. They contain a very high amount of fine detail. Zoom on the graveyard and read the tombstone inscriptions! Photographer: David Osborn

| Technical note What happens when photographing directly into the bright sun, for example at a sunset? The image sensor's anti-blooming technology avoids any blooming and allows to define the sun as a star - especially when stopping down the aperture. Despite the large contrast the sensor nevertheless picks up fine hues (evening light at the horizon) as well as dark parts in the treeline (foreground). Photographer: Urs Krebs
