After doing more scanning with the 1600 and not happy with the focus - and reading an article where a guy said that VueScan was able to focus with the 4980 - I ran out of the house at the last minute and headed for B&H. The place was a madhouse. Made my way to the counter. They only had the Pro model in stock.
Grabbed a cab and got over to Adorama. They had it in stock. Waited a while and finally they brought out a box that looked like a spear had gone through it. The salesman told me that it was only the box - the scanner was fine.
I said: I want another one.
Waited. And got it and left with some other sundries. Not sure if I'll even have time to set it up tonight - there's a bunch of things I have to get prepared for tomorrow. But as I say - what the hell - it's only money.
