Full-Digital Studio

Equipped with a complete full-digital image processing room, color adjustment is made, looking at the real object at the same time as photography.
Equipped with hybrid electric flash, incorporating FL, which enables photography of valuable cultural assets without generating ultra-violet rays and heat.

First Studio (W7.0m x D10.0m)

• Ceiling is 5m high, photography of lengthy material up to 4m, using the wall, is possible.
• Equipped with fully-automatic up and down bank.
• Overhead photography pit, where overhead photography from 3.5m high is possible.

Second Studio (W6.0m x D7.0m)

Ultra-High Definition Image Processing

Nissha has independently developed an image processing process to make digital archives of precious cultural assets and art works at high precision and high definition. By correcting the aberration and distortion of camera lenses, it has become possible to prepare data with high size precision. By using this, the data photographed in sections can be precisely combined, which enables reproduction in detail of large reproductions that far exceed the limit of pixel counts. As the size of the image data originally processed can be measured on the screen, using "Arcvista" our exclusive software, it is highly evaluated in the field of academic study which treats precious materials.

Distortion Removal of Lenses and Front Conversion Processing

• Correction of aberration and distortion inherent to camera lenses.
• Front conversion of an object photographed at an angle (it is useful for photography in a place without space for long shots.)
• Size measurement at a precision of ±0.5mm * is possible on an image.
• It is possible to combine images photographed in sections correctly without a seam.

*In the case of photography at 6 million pixels in A-0 size.
