[filmscanners] Canon FS4000US

["Peter Klein" <pklein@2alpha.net>]

While we're on the subject of the Canon FS4000US...

I just got one.  I'm upgrading from a Nikon LS-2000, which I used
exclusively with VueScan.  If anyone has tips to help get over the
transition and learning curve, I'd love to hear them.

I'm wondering if I should stick with VueScan or use FilmGet.  I tend to do
all adjustments after the scan.  I like to get all possible detail in the
scan and then fix the black and white points (etc.) in the image
editor.  B&W is my first love, but I shoot color as well.

Is FARE more effective than VueScan's IR cleaning or vice versa?  One thing
I noticed was that in VueScan, the FS4000 did *two* passes when infrared
cleaning was on.  I don't know if that happens when running FARE within
FilmGet.

Thanks,
