After taking advantage of the "free" upgrade of VueScan by promising not to upgrade my Silverfast, I've been learning the differences. As near as I can figure, I may have given up a lot of features that I don't really use. The workflow of VueScan is much simpler. There are a few hidden tricks like adding a '+' to the filename so it will just increment numbers as it adds batch scan files to the folder.
The only real problem that I seem to be having is contrast on BW scans. Everything is coming out very low contrast. Has anyone else experienced this with VueScan?
