  • Patent number: 6532058
    Abstract: Disclosed is a photographic capturing device for the capturing of photographic image information from photographic media with a light source, with a stage for the photographic medium to preset a reference position for the projection of the photographic medium by way of a projection optics onto a detection element which detects the light originating from the light source and modulated by the photographic medium according to the image information, whereby a sample carrier with a sample is provided for the control of the focus of the projected image, and a positioning mechanism which removably places the sample carrier at the reference position for projecting the sample onto the detection element by way of the projection optics.

  • Publication number: 20010048536
    Abstract: Photographic capturing device for the capturing of photographic image information from photographic media, with a light integrator which receives light emitted from LED chips with a respectively LED chip specific color, homogenizes the light and emits it from an output opening, in order to illuminate a photographic medium carrying photographic image information, and a detection means for detecting the light modulated by the photographic medium according to the image information, whereby a multitude of LED chips of equal emission color are provided for at least three different colors, which LED chips are mounted on at least one heat conducting substrate and in heat conducting contact therewith.

  • Publication number: 20010048814
    Abstract: A photographic image acquisition device is disclosed including a light source in the form of an LED chip array having a plurality of LED chips, a photographic medium positioning member for positioning a photographic medium at a predefined position, a projecting lens for projecting the image information on the photographic medium onto a detecting member and for exposing said detecting member, and a light transmitting and averaging member positioned between the LED chip array and the predefined position. The device provides faster image acquisition with a relatively simple mechanical construction.
