Not for me, but I am a pure amateur and have only had this scanner
for a few weeks. It was an upgrade for the Nikon Coolscan III (ls30)
and to me it seems far superior (in all aspects, contrast
included). I have no Canon scanner to compare with, so I have no
idea how it works compared to that. I also find that there is
less reason to use ICE with this scanner than the LS30.
