Hi Phil,

Will be anxiously awaiting your tests.

First impressions with the polaroid 4000 plus aren't as good as I was
expecting. The images scanned at 4000 DPI Optical are not as sharp as the Canon
2710 FS which it was going to replace. I also got more shadow detail from the
canon, but learning the software correctly would probably fix that. However if
I can't get past the sharpness problem, I'll be returning it. The problem may
be with the scanner, as the differenceis quite noticeable. The results should
have been reversed.
