METIS DRS 2020 DCS Plus
Key Features
16K High-Resolution Digital Camera
Delivers a native optical resolution of up to 1600 PPI (software adjustable between 100–3200 PPI) for capturing the finest details with unmatched clarity.
DC Synchrolight Lighting System
Patented METIS technology featuring 4 (Standard) or 8 (Plus) high-CRI LED light sources, dynamically controlled to optimise illumination for any material type.
SuperScan Mode with Light Inspector
Records all lighting configurations in one file, enabling visual adjustments and relighting without rescanning, significantly improving workflow speed.
