Based on Pangolin's tests and experience, we recommend that you buy one of three different classes of scanners and scanner amplifiers. General Scanning's G120 scanners with LSDI's TurboTrack scanner amps. You can get good performance with the G120 using medium speed scanner amps. A good scanner amp in this category is the MediaLas CatWeazle. Should you be purchasing new scanners, note that there is often a backlog.
Lead times can be as much as ten weeks.
We cannot recommend other types or brands of scanners for computer graphic use at this time. This may change as Pangolin tests newer equipment. The advantage of galvo blanking scanners is their compatibility with galvo mirror scanners. The disadvantage is that this response time is relatively slow. It is not enough to simply use an arm which rotates in and out of the beam.
