SilverFast gets the best out of your OpticPro ST64. Use our IFF+Engine (Intelligent Frame Finding) to automatically find the frames of your photos lying on the flatbed.
Plustek has developed a range of flatbed scanners, book scanners and film scanners. Plutek is one of the few companies that come up with new scanner models nowadays.
As comparatively low priced devices in proper quality Plustek scanners are quite popular.
The best: For many devices, SilverFast is already included in delivery.
The OpticPro ST64 from Plustek is an older scanner model for which the manufacturer no longer updates the device drivers. However, the OpticPro ST64 scanner is still supported by our scanner software SilverFast 6.6, which has proven itself in use over many years.
Please note that we will no longer develop SilverFast version 6.6. SilverFast 6.6 does not run on current operating systems, detailed information can be found in the system requirements. If you are interested in SilverFast 6.6, please test our free demo software before purchasing.

One of the most influential pieces of technology to my career is SilverFast. It changed the way I work and using it started me on the journey I have gone on with post processing my images. What SilverFast does to a file is equivalent to putting on sunglasses on a very bright day. It helps you see the image most clearly.
SilverFast is the scanner software that actually delivers perfect scans right from the start as others like VueScan failed miserably in my test with them regarding accuracy in color representation.
With the optionally available Archive Suite (a combination of SilverFast Ai Studio and SilverFast HDR Studio) it is also possible to make RAW scans, in order to do the processing later in the HDR software. With the option to scan films in the HDRi format you have the possibility, to use the information of the infrared channel in an optimal way in the postprocessing. For the professional use it is recommended by all means to use the Archive Suite.
