Silverfast has a bit of a learning curve
scanner
old scanners far more than the new ones
ability to distinguish detail based on shading
limited number of settings
SE is limited strictly to 35mm transparencies
Scans only one slide or frame of film at a time
scanning a lot of slide film
essentially raw scan data with no colour or brightness adjustments
film scanner developing banding issues
dedicated film scanners
automatic or manual feed
losing detail in high contrast areas
The colour conversions are a little tricky at first
iSRD does not work with black and white film
my photos are too grainy
lack of focus does help with the speed
No extra film holders to store while not in use
Flatbed scanners are notoriously poor doing 35mm
40 per roll is very expensive
there s not an economical processing solution
the scans have looked a bit harsh and overly processed
