Canon Scanners: now bundled with SilverFast SE
Canon, leader in photographic and imaging technology, is pleased to announce that SilverFast SE, LaserSoft Imaging AG’s advanced scanning software, is now available as bundled software with its top of the range CanoScan 9950F and CanoScan 8400F desktop flatbed scanners. SilverFast SE is a condensed version of SliverFast Ai – widely regarded by professionals and advanced amateurs alike as one of the finest scanning software packages on the market. SilverFast SE features enhanced scanning functionality, intelligent automatic operations, and highly controllable colour from preview.
Together with the CanoScan 9950F and CanoScan 8400F, SilverFast SE gives the demanding photo professional more power to control the scanning process, reducing the requirement for post-scan image corrections.

Advanced interfaces for gradation curves and histograms give the user more power for setting and adjusting tonality and colour intensity. Instant feedback is provided via the real time preview panel
