Quick MTF

When embarking on a new purchase, it is important to do some research on the quality of the device, in order to make sure it satisfies your needs, and this is especially true of image capture devices, be they lenses, cameras or scanners, as you need to know beforehand whether or not it is suited for you.
Quick MTF is a practical and easy to understand program created to help you do just that, namely assess the quality of such devices, returning a variety of data about it, so you can make an informed decision on its purchase.

Uncomplicated and novice-accessible looks

With regards to its appearance, the application is quite user-friendly and undemanding, its well-organized GUI making it approachable even to the less tech-savvy individuals.
The main window of Quick MTF allows you to load the picture you wish to analyze, while, in the numerous panels on the left and bottom edge, you can learn more about the device in question.

Analyze digitally captured images and measure their quality indicators

To get things started, you need to load a file into the utility, supporting QMTF format as well as more popular extensions, such as JPG, PNG, BMP, TIF, and others. The only requirement is that it needs to contain ROI information, meaning that it was captured by a device, rather than digitally created.
After loading the picture, you can select on a precise area of it and analyze it in detail. Similarly, you can use the ‘Automatic ROI Detection’ feature which will look at the file’s EXIF data and other information to reveal the results you are after, such as CA, MTF50, MTF50P and other values, like ESF, LSF or ‘MTF vs. Distance to Center’. These can be saved to text files, for further inspection.

A simple means of determining if a device matches your quality expectations

In conclusion, Quick MTF is a handy and practical software solution meant to assist you in determining whether an image capturing device generates quality digital files, helping you make a decision about its acquisition, for instance.
