1.2 Other compatible cameras
The Seitz D3 Digital Scan Back can be removed from the Roundshot D3 and attached
to other camera bodies. At the moment of release of this manual it can be used with:
Seitz 6x17 Digital
The D3 software detects the attached camera and adapts its software parameters
automatically (for example, the image format).
1.3 Computer / tablet PC
The camera is controlled by a connected computer (tablet PC) which also serves to
visualise and store the images. For best convenience we recommend using a tablet PC
with touch screen, for example a Motion Tablet PC:
It is also possible to use the camera with other computers. Important factors when
selecting a suitable computer are:
- speed of operating system (32-bit or 64-bit) – ideally 64-bit machines
- speed of the processing unit (dual core, quad core)
- available RAM,
- Gigabit Ethernet (for fast image transfer)
- size and speed of the hard disks (preferrably fast SSD drives for fast image saving)
Currently the following operating systems can be used (both 32-bit and 64-bit):
• Windows XP
• Windows VISTA
• Windows 7
With Intel processors only:
• Mac OS 10.5
• Mac OS 10.6
