SilverFast SE is especially designed for entry-level users. Images will benefit from SilverFast's intelligent automatic functions which help to make the process of adjusting images much easier.

Predictable color from the SilverFast SE preview, even for all kinds of negatives, gives imaging and color reproduction a new dimension while securing the correct workflow with the ScanPilot.

SilverFast SE can be used as a Stand-alone Application or as a Plug-in for ADOBE Photoshop.

Process all picture frames from your preview with one click in batch mode. Integrated QuickTime movie tutorials (in each dialog) will help to quickly understand and benefit from each function. The software can be upgraded to SilverFast SE Plus or SilverFast Ai.
