Hi,
Yeah, I have to say that once you add in the ICE on a 1200 + dpi
pass my scan time really increases.
The slides I have been scanning lately have been 4 year old
Kodachrome and Ektachrome with TONS of dust particles and little
hairs. I get rid of most with air and a soft brush, but there is
NO WAY I could remove those artifacts by hand in the same amount of
time as the scanning process takes.
I spent the extra money on the ICE technology because very soon
myself and a friend will be scanning for archival purposes his
grandfather's slides. We gonna need all the technology we can get
a hold of.
