Film sleeves are typically 7 strips of 6, and barely fit on most letter-sized scanner beds. You must use manual exposure, which is set using one of the images. Manual exposure is fairly easy using Silverfast, but often problematic using the software supplied with the scanner. It may be difficult or impossible to identify frame numbers.

The hue cast (Figure 21) is somewhat concerning especially in the a* channel (Magenta-Green) with departures approaching 5 levels (the underlying numbers showing it to be a green bias). The b* channel is closer to neutral, variances ranging up to 3 levels from their reference values, but many at 2 or less variance from reference values. Most of the b* variances are bluish. Hence, all told, the scan has a moderate Cyan bias by the numbers; not being dE(2000) calculations, these numbers may not faithfully indicate how perceptible the variations from strict neutrality really are, here or in the following similar graphs; but regardless of the measurement approach, the smaller the variations the better.

If you've been taking photographs for more than 10 years, you probably have a number of photos, slides, and negatives lying in drawers, boxes and probably some on the walls in frames. Chances are, if you've been taking photos within the past ten years, you probably have a hard drive with a bunch of images (which may or may not be organized but that's a different issue). I'm in both categories as I have thousands (and thousands) of slides in boxes and since I typically do not bring out my slide projector on a regular basis, I almost never see these images. SilverFast(R) Archive Suite helps me digitize my slides so that I may add them onto the images on my hard drive. While SilverFast can do a lot more than one needs for standard scanning, it does what it needs to do quite well. Keep in mind that the biggest issue with SilverFast is that it does take some time to learn. Fortunately, they do have an easy scan approach with fewer abilities to customize and fine tune the scan and a custom scan approach that does provide the user more control but requires more scanning knowledge. An approach for everyone but be aware that their help leaves a lot to be desired. More on this later.

During this review, I've been scanning a number of slides I took some 36 years ago as I traveled in Europe. One of the things I found is that even though these slides were kept in a metal box in a "relatively" safe range of temperatures and (since I live in Southern California) modest humidity, there was noticeable degradation of color lost in the slides. Of particular note though were some slides I purchased of the "Sephardi Synagogue of Amsterdam" who's color was completely shot. Since these were industrially made, I've no way to know their manufacturer and/or technique used to make them. My point is that digitizing your images may be the best way to keep them for the ages. Their age-degradation notwithstanding, this did provide a great opportunity for SilverFast to demonstrate what it could do with severally challenged images and it did an outstanding job of recovering as much as it did as you will see later in this review.

There are a number of ways to digitize things like slides: I have one friend who solved his problem by projecting his slides on a screen and taking digital photographs of the slides on the screen. I still cringe as I think about the quality (and complete loss of dynamic range) that came from that approach, but admittedly he's happy and he got the job done. To be honest, using SilverFast will not be a fast a process. In fact, it will be a lot slower, but the quality you get will be excellent.

The first problem is that you have to plan ahead to do this. When you first start SilverFast, you will see your intro-screen shown below in the top screenshot. Normally, if you have nothing to do here but continue onto the scanning process, you tap the Start button seen in the circle on the bottom right. However, if you want to have your iPhone let you know how things are progressing, you need to first tap the bottom left button called "Service Dialog." Tapping this brings you to the second screenshot below. Then, in the region that I've outlined with the red rectangle, you need to check the check box and enter four numbers in the field (here I've entered "1234") as this will be used by your iPhone to link to your computer.

At this point you can go to your phone, open the free JobMonitor app, and link up with the 4-digit number you created. Then when you start the scan, you can watch the progress as well as see how far along your scans are coming as shown in the screenshot below on the left. Once everything is completed you will be told by a noise from your phone also showing a new window that that job is now complete (as shown on the right) and that you can go back to your computer and start a new round.

There are other issues as well with VLT: as a minor point, the VLT cannot understand successive numbers. By this I mean that if you have your image names with successive numbers, they show up as 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 2, 20, etc. Yes this can be resolved by adding zeros before each number, but one really shouldn't have to.

Another strange quirk with the VLT and its interaction with SilverFast HDR is how names are kept but ignored. Let me explain: when scanning images, the easiest way to deal with names is to simply let them develop successive numbers (image 1, image 2, etc.). Later, in Adobe Bridge, the Finder or Explorer, go ahead and rename them with individual names. Then, go back to SilverFast HDR, and look in the VLT and select an image to process. If you look in the name of the image in the top of the window below (Amsterdam - 6) , you can see that SilverFast HDR properly recognized the renamed name of the image. But if you look at the assigned name, it reverted to the original name (Image 1 23) that was created at the time of the file's creation.

Another aspect of the problem is that there is no "ONE" manual. Rather, you have a large number of manual pieces covering bits of information. And, since they are trying to be as short as possible, they really say nothing.

Overall, a lot of effort went into these videos and PDFs with an end result that provides more confusion than answers. If you look at the forum on the website, you'll see a number of answers that should have been covered in the PDFs that they do not (yet) provide.

I do want to provide one alternative for their dreadful Help: at Lynda.com, Taz Tally (one of the best instructors on scanning around) has a whole teaching session on using SilverFast Version 8.0 and it is excellent. Taz takes you through simple scans using the WorkflowPilot through to complex scans using the manual approach. There is a number of hours of instruction here and every hour you spend will save you 4-fold of the time you will spend trying to figure this out yourself using LaserSoft Imaging's PDFs and videos. Learning from Taz will not only teach you how to scan using SilverFast, but you will learn many tips and tricks on how to do better scans in general. While this series does not include the latest features, it will get you sufficiently tutored on how to use SilverFast that it will be much easier to figure them out yourself.

At a minimum, SilverFast can do much more than just help you get good images to start with. The range of features that SilverFast provides is probably much more than most people are likely to use. Also, people who want the level of scanning support probably have Photoshop and to be honest, Photoshop can do a number of the extra capabilities better than SilverFast. On the other hand, those who are rebelling against the rental of software (E.g., The Creative Cloud) might find SilverFast a welcome relief.

This chart is also known as the Siemens star chart. Standard print sizes are 2418 cm (for A4 paper), 26.6720 cm (for US letter paper), 37.3328 cm (for A3 paper), and 4030 cm (for Super A3/Super B paper). Options include the number of star bands, sine or bar band pattern (sine shown on the right), pixels per inch (600 or 720 is recommended, depending on the printer), contrast ratio, gamma, and highlight color.

Star charts can be used for observing performance (MTF, Moire patterns, and other image processing artifacts) at a variety of angles. In addition to the star (which has a selectable number of bands and either bar or sine form), the chart contains tonal calibration patches and slanted edges for checking results with SFR.

Commercially produced devices typically consist of a transparent square glass slide, 2 inches or 50 mm in dimension. The slide is printed in metallic chromium by photolithography with the standard pattern, photographically reduced from a large master plot. Slides are available as photographic positive or negative prints to best fit the illumination technique used in various testing methods. A less expensive, abbreviated version omits the two tiniest groups at the center of the pattern (groups number 8 and 9), since the lithography at that scale is costly, and the group elements represent resolution beyond the design of many imaging applications.

The common MIL-STD-150A format consists of six groups in a compact spiral arrangement of three layers. The largest two groups, forming the first layer, are located on the outer sides. The smaller layers consist of repeating progressively smaller pairs toward the center. Each group consists of six elements, numbered from 1 to 6. Within the same layer, the odd-numbered groups appear contiguously from 1 through 6 from the upper right corner. The first element of the even-numbered groups is at the lower right of the layer, with the remaining 2 through 6, at the left. The scales and dimensions of the bars are given by the expression

In addition, files and folders should be alphanumerically and uniformly named so that they appear in the exact order they are to be viewed or accessed being sure to include a collection number, if applicable, in each file name. Uniformity and consistency in naming greatly assists file/folder organization and maintenance. be457b7860
