The included software Cyberview X is basically very good, but does not support the multi-scan capability of the hardware, any more than the available bundle (vaunted) SilverFast software (SE = 50 EUR, Ai = 150 EUR extra charge)! I think that's insolence, therefore only 4 stars. If you want to purchase an upgrade, one only 10 EUR will be credited. So stay away from the bundles, dear Silver SEPlus buy additionally for 104 EUR, a software that really kauzm still leaves to be desired.
Addendum 20.01.2009:
Having now made several hundred scans with the device, I would like my previous review to add something.
The color restoration ROC works * only * with the included software Cyberview X, not with SilverFast. Even then is often a (usually automated) finishing with the also mitglieferten Adobe Photoshop Elements needed. However, the results are truly amazing.
As for the removal of scratches and dust, I agree Nico York (see below) to a large extent. With SilverFast SE Plus can be the perfect indeed, but only with tremendous attitude and computational complexity (for a einzelenes Dia quite times 10 minutes from ...).
Overall, I am very satisfied, especially with the scanning of negatives (S / W and color). In slides it pays, if necessary, to take them out of the frame and take the time needed to dust / scratch removal in purchasing.
And Attention! For all silver-containing films (S / W and often Kodak color) can not work the hardware-based scratch removal.
