The SilverFast Ai Studio 9 Scanner Software with Printer Calibration for the Epson Perfection V550 Photo from LaserSoft Imaging includes the full functionality of the SilverFast Ai Studio. Multi-Exposure increases the scanner's dynamic range, removes natural image noise, and provides more details. The included Auto IT8 Calibration ensures correct colors. The Auto Adaptive Contrast Optimization (AACO) can optimize dark, high-contrast image areas in the twinkling of an eye, without affecting details in the highlights.

Photographers and professionals alike from all areas of digital imaging rely on the software. SilverFast Ai Studio is integrated into the workflow by many companies in the graphic arts industry who rely on smart algorithms and expert dialogs for image enhancement. Output or printer calibration is very useful when the task is to reproduce an image via printer under the condition of keeping the colors and hues as original and predictable as possible. Without creating an appropriate ICC profile, which takes into account the printer, ink cartridges, and paper used, the task is almost impossible.

The SilverFast Printer Calibration is an exclusive feature for calibrating the printer using a flatbed scanner, which is appropriate for professionals and for beginners as well, due to its easy handling and smart price-performance ratio.

Q: 3. Will this scan black and white film negatives to digital format?

A: One of the joys of my new V600 is the ability to scan transparencies, like the medium format negatives from the 70's!

Q: 4. Is the scanner and the accompanying software compatible with MAC OS 10.12.2, the latest version? Thanks,

A: I use a PC but the software that came with the scanner was good for MAC 10.10.x. According to Epsons web site they have a version for 10.12.x. You should be good to go. I used mine to scan some 6x45 wedding photos from 30 years ago and the results were more than great.

Q: 5. Straight out of the box- on an "airgapped" computer system (no internet connection), and using just the included software that is packaged with the scanner- is the maximum photo resolution as advertised at 6400DPI? Or is it like Canon quoting a higher number but in reality only giving you the ability to scan with their software at most at 600 DPI?

A: This scanner has an Optical Resolution of 6400 dpi.

A: They are saved individually.

Q: 9. How good is the depth of focus on the V600? I am scanning twigs that are up to 10mm in depth (distance from the glass plate). My old Canon 4200F (a CCD scanner) handled these beautifully but my Epson V19 (a CIS scanner) has no depth of field at all.

A: When using the Epson V600, the depth of focus is extremly shallow.
