Abstract

A telecine scanner, with which the horizontal picture steadiness errors are reduced by the film guidance in the area of the film gate 5, includes a first guiding element 11 supporting one of the longitudinal edges of the film 4 at at least two points in the film gate 5 in the area of the radiation path 6. In addition, two guiding elements 12 are provided, which are spaced substantially centrically apart from the first guiding element 11 and engage the other longitudinal edge of the film 4.
