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.

Abstract: The photoelectric scanning device for original images contained on a photographic film has a film platform for the film, for temporarily holding the original images contained on the film in a respectively defined scanning position; a light source for illuminating the respective original image in the scanning position; a photoelectric converter for receiving light being transmitted through the respective original image in the scanning position, and for converting the received light into electrical scanning signals in a two-dimensional and pixel-by-pixel manner; an optical member for imaging the respective original image in the scanning position onto the photoelectric converter; and an electronic member for controlling the photoelectric converter and for reading out the electrical scanning signals which are generated by said photoelectric converter.
