Version 8 is less annoying to use than V 6, but hardly a joy. There are virtually no blogs with helpful tips from professionals or enthusiasts using the software, and on Flickr what appears to be the official Silverfast 8 group has one question (posted 2 years ago) with zero answers. Nothing earth-shattering, and vastly overkill for my snapshots, but frustrating to know that such good results are wrapped in such a wretched application run by what appears to be a rather predatory company.

I like to have my negatives, then a totally neutral digital version (a standard linear, non-messed around negative) which I keep untouched.

They also have slightly sharper characteristics at 100 view - though they dont actually extract more detail than Vuescan at 4000dpi (so possibly just USM - if so, Id love to know how to switch it off, as I dont want the software to do any pre-processing).īut do you really find that it is difficult to recover a high-keyover-exposed C41 frame in post Im shooting all my C41 at two stops over and have no problems generally speaking. This is a difficult thing to be sure about, as the color is influenced by the tonality.
