Dear issa
firstly, please refrain from cross-posting, thanks
The norm for
IT8 calibration does describe scanner calibration for reflective and transparent positive material. There is no
IT8 calibration for
negatives.
SilverFast does offer
Negafix (
https://www.silverfast.com/show/negafix/en.html) for optimal results when scanning
negatives.
Please feel free to download a
demo version (from our website at: Download -> SilverFast
demo.
This way you can easily assure yourself that your personal systems configuration does work before buying anything.
Thus you are able to explore all the features of SilverFast and check if it suits your needs.
To scan a target for calibration with other calibration software, not SilverFast itself, the most easiest way is to:
(1) Set the gamma value and check the box saying that this gamma shall be used for
HDR output, too: > Options > General > Gamma, for
HDR output:
(2) Choose
HDR scan mode for scanning the target:
If you want to make use of SilverFast's own
IT8 calibration feature, but don't need to
buy additional target(s) (which generally comes with the
IT8 calibration purchased), please contact our sales staff for an offer:
