I also upgraded from LS2000 to 4000ED, the different is big or small?
Up to your judge:
This is crop from a 2700dpi scan with LS2000 - original pixel

This is the same shot scanned with 4000ED - original pixel

May be the different is smaller with handheld or negative but I prefer
to get the best scanner I can afford and to me it makes big different
to my shots for both resolution and noise.
