We recommend a more powerful scan software such as SilverFast, as the included Nikon Scan is out of the scanner’s depth. SilverFast also offers the possibility to calibrate the scanner. The tools for automatic corrections are working properly and contribute to better imaging results. […] Grain can be effectively reduced by multiple scanning. The autofocus accomplishes a perfect job for accurately mounted slides and smooth film strips.
Nikon discontinued the development of in-house scanner software and today no up-to-date Nikon program exists that works on today’s operating systems. SilverFast offers a future-proof alternative and because its software is based in-house, it works independently of the outdated Nikon drivers. Moreover, SilverFast’s slew of new features upgrade the quality, efficiency and operation of Nikon scanners.
