    SilverFast Ai (Polaroid) ReviewSilverfast v/s VueScan - Version: 6.2.1d1, 4/23/2004 11:10AM PST

    Theodoric
    Just to give credit where credit is due: SilverFast AI is professional scanning software, which has a large feature set and powerful interface that requires some education to get the most out of. For those who understand it, it is a fine and afaik unparallelled professional scanning application. VueScan is also excellent for what it is: intermediate scanning software for those who don't want or don't need many features, or don't know how to use them and don't want to take the time to learn, but rather intend to do all or most of the tweaking in Photoshop. It is very good for that level of user, but is very limited in comparison with SilverFast.

    SilverFast Ai (Polaroid) CommentaryI wish that… - Version: 6.0.1d03, 10/31/2002 11:46AM PST

    the software will support earlier Polaroid scanners. It has nice features that are missed that would have been great on my sprintscan plus. I would gladly pay for software that would upgrade my scanner software. Vuescan is the alternatice that runs OSX but there is no alternative and there are times when a differing approach would be useful.

    SilverFast Ai (Polaroid) ReviewI've been using… - Version: 6.0.1d03, 8/30/2002 01:12PM PST

    SF ever since version 5.0 was thrown in with my SS400. LaserSoft have managed to improve on the program with each new version. The new SDR is great, NegaFix is still great, batch scanning works like a charm, color correction tools are some of the easiest I've used.
