What do Epson users say about SilverFast?

Matt Munson - Using SilverFast to scan all of my film on my V600 was wonderful, and unceasingly produced good and fast results. As I’ve upgraded my scanner to a V700, I hope to enjoy the same benefits that SilverFast gave me with the V600. The softwares from Epson and Vuescan just don’t compare to SilverFast in my honest opinion, and I’ve tried them all.

Lucia H. - I often had devices by Epson and the truth is that I never had any problems with them. I decided to get the V850 since it comes with SilverFast and I have never regretted it. Having used it for several months, I went for the Ai Studio upgrade and a target. The reason being that I always had trouble with i1 and in SilverFast the IT8 calibration works automatically. I can definitely recommend both, scanner and software, unconditionally.

Professor Roderick Robertson, Saint Mary's University - I just purchased an upgrade to SilverFast 8 for an Epson scanner. It is fantastic! It was like getting a whole new scanner for the price of the upgrade.

Gregory Knipp - I’m an amateur photographer currently involved in a project to digitalize a collection of old 35mm slides, 35mm and 120 negatives, as well as color and B&W photos. After my original scanner died, I purchased an Epson V-750 PRO. I was happy to see LaserSoft Imaging’s SilverFast Ai bundled with it since I had used SilverFast before and had obtained very good results with it. I have since upgraded to the Ai Studio version.

John R. Spurr - My thoughts on using SilverFast SE as my only scanner control program. Recently I had the misfortune of having my Windows XP Professional Computer die when the main board quit. While looking into upgrading with a new board or switch out completely to a New Window 7 Professional it became evident that I would have to make the big switch to a new replacement. I am heavily loaded with XP software so I was concerned about which software would have to be upgraded as well. I have an Epson Photo 3200 and have been extremely happy with the results that I have obtained. I am heavy into retouching and restoration of photos as it is a sizable part of my photo business. I installed all the software packed with the 3200 which consisted of the regular supplied company software and SilverFast SE. When I discovered just what I could do with the software and the amount of control that it offered for black and white films (such as by brand) as well as transparencies and prints, I selected to use it exclusively and never really used the alternative software.
