In the coming years billions of slides and images have to be digitized in order to preserve the included memories. Since original analog images are always at risk of loss and damage, this high-quality digital archive should be built in a short time. The SilverFast Archive Suite 8 is established as software solution for this task. It perfectly teams up with the scanners from all major manufacturers.
For a high-quality digital archive it is crucial that during the scanning phase, the scanner captures as much information as possible. LSI's patented SilverFast Multi-Exposure® manages to double the Dynamic Range of many scanners. Thus, no image details get lost. Contrary to popular belief, the Dynamic Range plays a greater role for the quality of a scan than its resolution.
Using iSRD®, SilverFast's automatic dust and scratch removal, additional data from the scanner's infrared channel is directly written into the RAW data formats DNG (or HDRI). According to the "non-destructive" approach, after completing the scanning process, the user has an optimal digital image of its analog originals, which he can access for processing again and again.
Using the new VLT, organizing the digitized images is efficient and easy as well. Rating, arranging, selecting, categorizing - this tool simplifies the workflow enormously. For an efficient image optimization, image adjustments can be copied from one to all selected images using the JobManager. SilverFast processes all optimization jobs in batch mode.
