2026.4 is now working properly and I'm convinced it's an improvement over the predecessor. Free trials seem to have disappeared but there's a 30 day money back guarantee if you want to try it

I've been using ON1 for the last couple of years mainly because it provides a complete workflow solution and the ability for auto edits if time for PP needs minimising. The new 2026.4 version should be even faster but doesn't like to play with some of my photos!

For best results you need a dedicated scanner like an epson perfection V500 photo

My guess is that they class batteries as consumable which seems fair to me

Both the image quality and the handling of the G7 suited me better,

Have a look at vue scan software. universal drivers for older versions of scanner and windoes

I moved from a G6 to a G7 and found it well worth the upgrade. Its quite a lot lighter than a G9 if weight is important to you. The 12-60 kit lens has good zoom range and performs well for its price
