![]() ![]() When I received the SilverFast upgraded software, the first thing I did was look for the “added value” of the new version. Although my scanner (Epson Perfection V700 Photo) came with its own software, I wanted the ability to do things that the packaged software simply could not offer. I already had an earlier version of this software and have been very pleased with the results. I recently received SilverFast Ai Studio (left). ![]() It is that backlog of product that we have in boxes that I will be addressing in this review. In addition to those images we have stored on a hard drive or in the “cloud,” we also have boxes of negatives and/or slides that are awaiting our attention. By using SilverFast PhotoProof, the image data does not need to be converted to CMYK.Most of us who have been photographing for a while (15+ years) have archives. The user just has to choose the ICC- profile for the printer and the FOGRA media wedge to be embedded.Embedding a media wedge is used as a reference for a true-to-color proof. The Photographer is able to create a color-true contact proof on any suitable, calibrated output device by using the advanced print dialog PrinTao in SilverFast. When activating SilverFast PhotoProof, the user will immediately see a CMYK simulation of the image by means of RGB softproofing on the calibrated monitor. The image optimization is processed in a media-neutral workflow, based on the RGB color model, while using the well-known tools of SilverFast DC Pro Studio and HDR Studio. SilverFast PhotoProof is an optional feature of SilverFast DCPro Studio and SilverFast HDR Studio - software specifically designed to work on images from digital cameras. Since the raw scan is now saved in HDR format, it can be transmitted over theinternet in this raw form, opening up new dimensions for work flow! The raw scan can be performed by any person (without any knowledge of scanning) it is only required that the user set the scan resolution.ĥ. Precious samples can be scanned without any loss in quality.Ĥ. Final output processing is not required at this time, the image only has to be saved.ģ. A samplecan be scanned and given back to the customer immediately.Ģ. All SilverFast tools are fully applicable: Defining output size, Auto-Adjust, Histogram, Gradation curves, Selective Color Correction, Unscharp Masking, Color Separation, CMYK-Preview.ġ. Instead of driving the scanner directly, SilverFast HDR enables the user to readthese raw files and process the data as if he had access to the original image on the scanner. 48 bit files retain all of the information supplied. Normal scan software saves images into a 24 bit file, discarding the extra information supplied from the scanner. Regardless of the effective dynamic range supplied, the file will always becomes a 48 bit file. Scanners with only 30 or 36 bit capability supply into this format their maximum output. In order to save such data with extended dynamic range, the 48 bit TIFF format has been defined. The images can be scanned and archived into digital format, and then opened at a later datewithout any loss quality. The ability to save these 'raw' files opens up a whole new workflow. This makes the reduction to 24 bit RGB obsolete. Many of today's scanners allow the ability to write the full dynamic range of its hardware into TIFF-data. This is an enhanced version of SilverFast HDR with new features, that make the processing of your digital images much more easier and convenient: LaserSoft Imaging is proud to present SilverFast HDR Studio.
