Product Description:

SilverFast SE is a solution from LaserSoft Imaging which combines the best of both worlds: high-end imaging technology for scanners for a very low cost.

Images will especially benefit from SilverFast's intelligent auto-adjust and LAB-based unsharp-masking, which does not sharpen the color noise of single channels, hence avoiding the extra noise.

You get many of the marvelous highlights of the full SilverFast Ai, such as:
  • Real-time correction
  • Auto-adjust with artificial intelligence
  • Professional unsharp masking
  • Color-cast removal slider
  • Simple selective color correction
  • Simple Color Management
  • RGB-TIFF and JPEG output formats SilverFast SE's ScanPilot guides the novice user through the optimum steps for brilliant images.
  • SRD - Smart Removal of Defects
  • ACR - Adaptive Colour Restoration
  • GANE- Grain & Noise Elimination
  • Professional auto + manual sharpening dialog

    SilverFast SE (Umax) ReviewKiller Software! - Version: 6.2.1r05, 9/25/2004 02:20PM PST

    This is the ONLY scanner driver that supports the Umax Astra 2200 USB scanner under OS X. It makes Umax's OS 9 software looks like it rode the short yellow school bus.

    If you have a Umax Astra 2200 scanner and want OS X compatibility this is your ticket. It fully supports the transparency adapter as well.

    Why is it the Silverfast SE update always takes you to the AI demo page? Pain in the ass. I paid for this product (SE); I shouldn't have to jump through hoops to get updates. If I wanted to upgrade to AI I'd do so. I don't need it, so I haven't upgraded and I don't appreciate this heavy handed technique to get me to buy an upgrade I don't want.
