The ScanSnap SV600 is particularly well suited to the task of image capture: it is able to scan through glass, so paintings don’t have to be removed from their frames, saving time and avoiding the risk of damage; its light range is powerful enough to capture images in high detail, but not so strong that it will harm delicate paint; and it is highly portable and easy for digitisation teams to take to collections, galleries and homes around the world.
