The histogram is a simple tool that helps you find the right settings for your scan object and environment. In short: what you are aiming for is an image that is not over- or underexposed, which can be easily seen in the histogram. Increase the shutter speed until the graph is barely reaching th...</summary> </entry> <entry><title>OpenScan3 Beta — What's New</title><link href="/posts/openscan3-beta-whats-new/" rel="alternate" type="text/html" title="OpenScan3 Beta — What&amp;apos;s New" /><published>2026-04-17T11:46:56+02:00</published> <updated>2026-04-17T11:46:56+02:00</updated> <id>/posts/openscan3-beta-whats-new/</id> <content type="text/html" src="/posts/openscan3-beta-whats-new/" /> <author> <name>Thomas Megel</name> </author> <category term="Firmware" /> <summary>We just announced that OpenScan3 is moving into beta. That post covers what beta means and where we still need help. This one is about what’s actually in it. Elias has been working on the new firmware for over a year, and it’s finally ready for broader use. Here’s what changed. What does the new firmware mean for you: 2-3 times faster capturing It is now significantly faster to capture a dat...</summary> </entry> </feed>
