Is it the 4000 or the 4000+ that's currently
available? I couldn't tell from a quick look at the Polaroid
website. I did notice that the rebates appear to have been extended until
January 31st -- a good thing, no doubt.

SS4000 / 4000+ / 120 ???
David. Yes, it is better but depending on your use and
requirements is it worth the extra money? Silverfast has developed a
multi-scan function for the 4000+ that I am told works well. Have not seen
it myself. I would imagine one could develop a test that showed the
differences but I am not sure you would see that much difference on a
practical basis. One thing I have found out is in the film scanner
community one mans definition of great/wonderful can be less than
adequate for another man. Frankly and at least based on US pricing it is
tough to beat the present Sprintscan 4000
deal. David

This is really a question for David Hemingway but maybe others
have experience...
How much better is the SS4000 + compared to the
'old' 4000? On paper it's a better bit depth, am I correct? The Firewire
doesn't matter, are the results noticeably better?
And, just for
35mm, will the SS120 produce a better scan than the SS4000 or the
4000+?
