SilverFast - Multiple Densitometer

Densitometers are devices for the quantitative measurement of color density and optical density of printed originals and particularly important in photographic technique to measure the density in negatives, slides and photographs. Unlike a spectrophotometer a densitometer can only measure tonal values, no hue. Analogously, the densitometer in SilverFast is a software tool to control gray and color values in an original. The densitometer allows to understand changes to tonal values made by SilverFast's image optimization features for each individual pixel.

On the left side of the SilverFast densitometer dialog, the unmodified tones of the preview scan are shown. The right side shows the tonal values, which would result in the scanned image with the actual image optimizations.
