I have been using VueScan for 20+… I have been using VueScan for 20+ years. I bought the professional version to help Ed as he started out. I have never been disappointed. The software has just kept improving over the years and works excellent. I use it for all my scanning needs: photo prints, negatives and slides. I have several scanners and it works great with all them. The software has tons of features, options and helpful workflows. I especially like filter features (IR clean, restore colors, restore fading, grain reduction). I have tried other software including the software that came with the scanner and other commercial software and not been as satisfied with the results. I can produce an image straight from Vuescan that does not require Photoshopping later. I am back scanning another batch of old negatives and have reaffirmed my satisfaction with Vuescan.

Great software for those who scan a lot I've been using ViewScan Professional for many years for many years (both for scanning sheets of paper and for scanning slides) and I intend to use it for many more! I've also installed it on some clients' machines. The main attractions of the software are: 1. It works on thousands of models of scanners, modern and old, and it is a great way to get the most from all of them while working with a consistent user interface. 2. It offers a huge range of features, supporting almost any feature built into a scanner (e.g. infrared pre-scan, sheet feeder) or even ones not built into the scanners in the first place such as multiple samples. These will probably only only be relevant to some people and only some of the time, but when you need the feature, you will be very grateful it is there! All in all, the great thing is that it's an "all in one" solution for all scanners, and is continuously being developed both in terms of adding new scanner models to the range and in terms of image processing features (for example, a recent feature is "hole punch removal" which does exactly what you imagine). On the downside, it's a big program, the interface is a little old fashioned, so there's a significant learning curve (particularly if you use it to scan colour negatives or slides). Therefore, it's probably not the software for the ocassional user, but if you scan regularly, and certainly if you scan a lot, this is the bees knees!

Vuescan protects scanner investment Owned HP 4050g scanner and run iMac desktop. HP stopped providing updated drivers within 2 years after purchase.It was replacement for HP scanner which they had previously abandon. Vuescan provided better controls, more features than HP OEM software. Have used Vuescan to digitize color sides, color prints documents, make hard copies. It is a versatile home office, hobby tool

Great program Great program. I have been using the program for many years. I have scanned in a majority of our family photos, both negatives and prints, dating back to the early 1900s. The program is easy to use, does a great job, a variety of scanning options and outstanding customer support. It is the ONLY scanning program I would use!

My Nikon Coolscan 9000 software busted… My Nikon Coolscan 9000 software busted August 25, 2014. I have used VueScan at least weekly ever since for B/W and color negs, transparencies, both 35mm and medium format. Being an ex-newspaper-magazine photographer I find all adjustments sufficient to obtain the results I was looking for usually at first attempt. I also use it for Epson 4490 flatbed scanner when scanning anything on paper. Thank you for a good product.
