Heiland Densitometer (TRD2/TRDZ)

• Ships in 14 days • Brand new • TRD-2 is in stock, ready to ship • TRD-2 Option 03 with USB connectivity is a special order item with a 3 week lead time • TRD-Z is a special order item with a 3 week lead time • The best densitometer on the market today • Densitometers are used in film photography to measure densities of negatives and the saturation of prints • Such measurements enable the photographer to choose the right photo paper and the correct exposure right away, allowing them to eliminate test strips • Once the paper and darkroom are calibrated, the first print from a previously measured negative is immediately a success • The exposure and development of film and paper can quickly be optimized, by means of precise measurement of the optical density • The quality of your negatives will be greatly improved by targeted corrections of exposure and development • Any film-developer combination will be optimized, quickly and safely Features: • Optional device configuration, allows adjustment for a large variety of tasks • Compact design, also ideal for mobile use • Quick process control for development of X-ray film and microfilm • Calibration of monochromatic inkjet printers, for Fine Art prints • Precise, long-term and stable measurements, due to a solid, metal construction • Measurements up to 6 logD (• Devices by Heiland Electronic usually work monochromatically within the visual spectrum, and can be individually adjusted according to their task Type TRD-2: • Enables easy and fast tests in all photographic processes • Measurement of logarithmic density for B&W films and papers • A button is used to select the transmission or reflection mode • For both transmission and reflection modes, an individual reference point is set • Measurements are done about 3 times in one second, ensuring a continuous reading of even high densities Type TRD-Z: • This instrument is very valuable while calibrating papers and films according to the zone system • Acts as an electronic zone ruler, replacing estimation with measurement • Any logarithmic density value is assigned to the appropriate zone range, which eases the interpretation of the density measurement Additional Options for TRD-2 & Z: • Exchangeable apertures • USB port • Measurement range extended to 5.5 logD • Extended display resolution (0.001 logD) • Measurement range is extended to 6.5 logD • Multi-color LED (creates red, blue, green or white transmission light) Contact us with questions regarding this product and for more information on the different options available.
