3. Upravljanje skenerja
3.1 Loading Film/Slides
The OpticFilm 8200i SE uses specific holders for different media types:
- Mounted Film Holder: For individual mounted 35mm slides. Insert the slide into the holder with the emulsion side facing down (usually the duller side).
- Filmstrip Holder: For 35mm filmstrips (negatives or positives). Carefully insert the filmstrip into the holder, ensuring it lies flat and is aligned with the guides.

Figure 3.1: Correct method for loading film and slides into their respective holders and inserting the holder into the scanner.
Once the film or slide is securely in the holder, gently push the holder into the scanner's slot until it clicks into place.
3.2 Scanning with SilverFast SE Plus
- Launch the SilverFast SE Plus software on your computer.
- Select the appropriate film type (e.g., negative, positive, Kodachrome) from the software interface.
- Uporabite predview function to adjust scanning parameters such as exposure, color balance, and resolution.
- Utilize the iSRD (Infrared Smart Removal of Defects) feature to automatically detect and remove dust and scratches. This feature uses an infrared channel to identify physical imperfections on the film surface.
- For optimal image quality, consider using the Multi-Exposure function to capture a wider dynamic range, especially for challenging negatives.
- Kliknite gumb »Skeniraj«, da začnete postopek skeniranja.
- Save the scanned image to your desired location and format (e.g., TIFF, JPEG).

4. Vzdrževanje

- Film Path: Dust or debris on the film path can affect scan quality. Use a can of compressed air to gently blow away any dust from the film slot. Avoid touching the internal optical components.
