Mark, have you tried the FS4000 with VueScan? Both Art
Entlich and I noticed with the Minolta Scan Dual II that scans done
with the native software were noisier in the shadows than the same
slides scanned with VueScan.
I was interested to see you liked negative scans on the
FS4000. I've always had trouble getting good negative scans with the
Minolta, so I await your fuller report with interest.
Regards,
Roger Smith
