I came across a used LS-5000 scanner and was comparing it with my LS-4000
scanner.
Taken in 2004, I suspect with the 90mm macro on OM4-Ti, Provis 100F using
ViewScan.

Here are two scans straight from the scanners. The LS-4000 scan looks better.
Of course I have always kept my scanner covered or in plastic for its life. I'm
wondering if the difference in the scans is possibly due to dust on the LS-5000
mirror?
Moose mentioned in 1/3/2014 that these scanner were prone to flare as well as
fiddly focus.
I know the LS-5000 is 16 bit vs LS-4000 14 bit, but otherwise I don't think the
5000 is any better, certainly not comparing these two images.
