Gees Al, we introduced the 4000 Plus only weeks ago. How elderly can that be !!!!!!! :) Great sharp scans at Max OD in a single pass!! Good focus across then slide!! Great software bundle! What more could you ask for?? Ahh, dust removal you say. It's a coming from Polaroid and Lasersoft. See Tony' earlier comments regarding this earlier this month.

In my price range, these seem to be the best 2 scanners. (The Canon FS4000 appears to have poor shadow performance and I've had enough of this with the Elite II.) I'm attracted by the extra resolution, low shadow noise, good depth of field and SCSI interface of the SS4000 (and Polaroids general customer service) but I have found ICE invaluable at times. Also, the SS4000 is now quite elderly in scanner terms. Has anyone had direct experience of both these scanners, preferably on dense slides like Kodachrome?
