Hi Chris, I have been using VueScan Pro for some time, and I’m very happy with it. The pro version gives you extra scanning features and unlimited software updates. Contra to other scanning softwares, like SilverFast, it does not have a lot of pre editing corrections. These are mainly made post scan, using Photoshop or other similar products.
I suggest you try out the demo versions, also for supported scanner, see http://www.hamrick.com/vuescan/vuescan.htm#supported I did also get the VueScan Bible book, which gives you more in-depth information about the VueScan scanning features.
