film eject

Postby renee » Tue Mar 24, 2009 8:28 pm

Hi,
1) I am trying your demo version prior to purchasing...and I had the same problem as a previous poster: could not eject film from my Nikon coolscan 5000 ed without shutting things down, and then back up. After reading your response I FINALLY found the "eject slide" button, so I tried it for my negative strip and it did eject it. HOWEVER, my Mac book Pro is now in a frozen loop and I will have to force quit. What should I have done differently? Niether way is a good way to extract my film (tuning off the nikon scan and then back on for very change of film OR your eject button and the force quiting the application and restarting).
Thanks in advance.

2) Also, I am totally new to all this scanning. I wish to archive to digital ALL my thousand of negatives. I will probably have someone else (a novice) do all the scanning, and then I will edit the pictures as desired in Photoshop at a later date. Is there an easy, "automatic" but good quality way to have negatives scanned in? Is your software overkill for my purposed?
Thank again,
Renee

Dear renee,

1) this problem will be taken care of with the SilverFast 6.6.0r5 which should be out in a couple of days.

2) for this purpose I would recommend scanning in 48Bit HDR Mode which is basically a 48 Bit RAW format
and afterwards you can do all of the settings including NegaFix conversion in our SilverFast HDR Software
