DT Digitization Guide – The Benefits of Instant CaptureWhile most top-level Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums are currently utilizing camera-based instant capture systems, we often encounter institutions that either aren’t knowledgable about the inherent benefits of instant capture systems, or potentially aren’t even aware that it’s a viable option for their digitization needs at all. With those questions in mind, we decided to make a brief guide outlining the history of digitization equipment and its evolution into the modern instant capture systems that have become so prevalent. From a massive increase in repeatable, measurable image quality, to unrivaled speed of workflow, instant capture has become the de facto standard at the world’s leading institutions. If you’ve ever wondered why places like The Getty, National Geographic, The Smithsonian, and The Walt Disney Archive are using instant capture for their digitization projects, this educational guide will walk you through those reasons and benefits.You must log in to access content.

DT Digitization Guide – Planning a Digitization ProgramThis plan is intended for those who are involved with or interact with digitization programs in cultural heritage institutions. Specifically, the focus of this document is on still imaging of real-world objects. It does not cover the related fields of born-digital images, nor does it cover audio or video digitization. We have made every effort to make sure it is useful and informative regardless of the equipment utilized. However, it is especially helpful for those who are using or are considering DTDCH digitization solutions. Specifically, we believe that this document will be useful to Program Directors, and other administrators in charge of digitization based on still-imaging. That said, it is our experience that curators, archivists, program directors, and conservationists can benefit enormously from a deeper understanding of the theory and practice of imaging. However, it is our hope that a broader audience will consider investing the time to digest and provide feedback on this treatise.You must log in to access content.
