Best scan software in Mac OS X, but...
1. It's not working when I have system language set as Polish. Switching to english is IRRITATING AS HELL.
2. It's not standalone app. the startup menu is also irritating. A LOT !!!
Please improve.
Thanks to the developers and support team of this software:
You make a great job.
Whenever I had a problem, I got help by mail/phone very quickly.
This software and the CanoScan 9000F is everything you need for perfect scans nowadays.
Where the software from Canon is very rudimentary, you have tons of features with SilverFast. Get an upgrade to the Studio version or Archive Suite an even PhotoShop is obsolete. World's number 1 scanner software.
I'm very happy with SilverFast for my Canoscan 8800F. The results are way better than what you can achieve with Canoscan.
And is this a surprise ? SilverFast is a professional software many photographers rely on.
SilverFast has unique patented techniques, it has won the EDP award for the best color management software in 2008.
Hmm, I can't understand some of the comments below. Maybe they used very old versions ? Ok, they were written some years ago. They developed a lot of new features (look here: http://www.silverfast.com/show/scanners-canon/en.html) in the meantime. I don't know, if it was slower than Canoscan that days, but these days it's not, it's fast, it's silverfast :)
works well but very slow and is very very expensive, would cost me more than my scanner!
I will stay with Agfa Fotolook or Vuescan on my older Arcus 1200
Keine Schwarz/Weiss(1-bit)-Scans möglich mit Powerlook 1120 und ScanMaker i900. Unbrauchbar langsam bei grossen Vorlagen. Keine Probleme mt der mitgelieferten Scansoftware.
The MultiSampling feature has really improved my image quality! Great effort there. I am fascinated by the speed of HiREPP - I opened a 1,5 GB file in under 5 seconds! Well done. Have a good day!

I have been using SilverFast Ai for over 1 year now with my Epson Perfection 3170 Photo.
The results I get are impressive. Very often I don't have to make many adjustments because the automatic feature is so powerful. The interface is easy to use and I could start getting productive in a short amount of time. The features that I didn't understand right away where explained well through all the tutorial videos that come for free.
Thanks LaserSoft, what a great product.
