Fujifilm of Japan has entered the holographic film market straight in at the top of the tree with the highest quality, highest consistency and highest speed film now available.
Branded FUJIFILM F HL and distributed exclusively in EAMER (Europe, Africa, Middle East Regions) by Fujifilm subsidiary Fuji Hunt, this media is three to four times faster than any other holographic film currently available. This means there is less exposure time needed, less chance of vibration, and a far brighter image.
The FUJIFILM F HL film, which will be available from 1 July via the Fuji Hunt website at -www.fujihunt.com/holography , will initially be directed to holographic display applications. This is an area in which the film's high consistency plays an important role.
The company's long history of producing photographic film of exceptional quality has provided the basis for manufacturing this high-grade panchromatic, photosensitive silver halide emulsion which is coated on a Tri-Acetate Cellulose base. The film's high sensitivity, ultra fine grain and low noise make it the perfect choice for producing masters as well as reflection or transmission transfers.
"It is Fujifilm's belief that 3D images will be an integral part of the future of imaging," says Greg Jackson, sales director of Fuji Hunt's holography programme.
Jackson will be expanding on the application of FUJIFILM F HL film technology for the display holographic market when he makes a presentation at the 7th International Symposium on Display Holography being staged over 10 to 14 July at the OpTIC centre in North Wales. Fuji Hunt will also be participating in the exhibition area of the event (www.isdh.org.uk).
