You're right, the interface is clunky and crappy, but the software does produce great scan quality. Nikon Scan was easier to use, nice interface, but it crashed all the time, and was incredibly slow. The only other alternative was Silverfast, but I never tried it due to the cost. It was almost $600 if I remember correctly for my scanner. -- Chris Crawford Fine Art Photography Fort Wayne, Indiana 260-437-8990 http://www.chriscrawfordphoto.com My portfolio http://www.facebook.com/pages/Christopher-Crawford/48229272798 Become a fan on Facebook On 9/22/14 1:11 AM, "Nathan Wajsman" <photo at frozenlight.eu> wrote: >I actually bought a 35mm film scanner and started using it this weekend. >Even though this is not a top-end model (Reflecta RPS 7200), the quality >is still far superior to my Epson flatbed, and at 450 EUR, the investment >was manageable. > >The scanner came with its scanner software, CyberView, which is passable, >but I read in some review that Silverfast is better.
