SE is the bundled package on many mainstream, but top end scanners. Sadly, you have to go and examine the ever so confusing and user unfriendly list to see what works for you. I use AI, but dread updating for the same reasons. I think they have got the same people from the British Telecom PsyOps dept. to do the marketing - but stay with it! It is magnificent and the peeps backing it (who oddly look aviation aware folks) are good eggs, and have a sense of humour, even if they are German. This is very like Photoshop in depth and isn't a one click answer, but the time it will save you, once you get more familiar with it, is incalculable. What you have to think of is the amount of work and sheer processing that is does, before saving your works for history. A word of warning for those that want to press one button or click - Don't. The vids referred to earlier are well worht downloading and will show you exactly how to improve your work and your workflow. The results can be epic and the effort is well worth the time, because once you can do one well, you then know how to do a thousand.
I thought I would hate this - but it became oddly satisfying and when you see a scan "Pop" into life, you will be amazed. I was staggered by how I looked in 1960 toddling with a fully loaded nappy.
