I sold mine in favour of the Minolta Dimage Scan Elite 5400. This has
the capability to scan at higher resolution (if necessary), has a
better DMax (according to the respective brochures), higher scan speed
and better film holders. It is also, in the UK at least, about the
same price new. Furthermore, it is slimmer and uses ICE rather than
Canon's FARE. Finally, Canon's software and support was a little
half-hearted in my opinion.
I am sure, though, that you will enjoy using whichever machine you buy.
