![]() GANE - Grain and Noise Elimination - As with USM and SRD 1:1 but then a choice of three presets: Light, Medium and Strong. Use the 'Mark' correction mode to display in real time.ĪACO - Auto Adaptive Contrast Optimisation - This has four presets, Low, Normal High and Maximum. SRD - Dust and scratch removal - As with USM, 1:1 and three sliders, Detection, Defect size and Intensity very much as the SilverFast 6.6 controls. Try it at a medium resolution for quicker reactions. Power, radius and threshold slider adjustors change the image in real time at a rate dependant on scanning resolution. USM - Unsharp Masking - This dialogue box has a 1:1 pre scan mode which re-scans the media at your pre-selected resolution. On SilverFast startup you can revert to factory settings if required from the 'Service Dialog' and selecting 'Software Reset'. I was not impressed with the product of any of the 'Automatic' features (apart from Multi Exposure) and resorted to custom format and changing the colour management profile (CMS) in 'Edit/preferences/CMS/' and selecting a personally preferred one is straight forward. The WorkflowPilot is toggled on with a click on the red icon at top left. SilverFast comment: 'Multi Sampling is not included in SilverFast 8 because all tests had the result that Multi Exposure is doing the same (not technical but in the scan results, they are better)'. With 8.0.1 the multi-scan has been dropped. Scans completed at 2400dpi produce 21.45 megabytes TIFF files. ![]() The resolution can be reduced in an effort to improve productivity and save on hard disk space. This is a lot of detail, and will probably exceed the requirements of most photographers, (unless AO size reproductions are required). Just as with previous Plustek film scanners, the Opticfilm 8100 can scan at a maximum resolution of 7200dpi, producing a 193 megabyte TIFF file. Updates of SilverFast and the drivers were readily available online, and once installed worked well together. Installing the drivers on both systems did not happen smoothly first time round, and required updating from within device manager. It was also tested on a Windows 7 64 bit laptop. ![]() SilverFast was trialed first on a 32 bit XP system straight from the disk.
