SprintScan 35 Plus Summary: This is a great performer as it is touted to be, aside from it's quirky design, and the short lifetime before failure. Because of the high initial cost, I figured it would have lasted longer, in light of the little use it saw. I would recommend trying one before buying one, and if you buy, buy aditional or extended warranty. I didn't. Strengths: Polaroid Printscan 35 plus..purchased this unit because of its capability to record a wider range of tones. I was impressed with its performance with color negatives, slides, and black and white negatives. The best part of using this scanner is its simplicity. Weaknesses: The only problem the irked me was the slide-through loading bay. This configuration makes it impossible to place the unit next to other equipment, because you must have access to the front side of the machine. I see that the 4000 has gone to front loading. Similar Products Used: Nikon scanners. Customer Service: I had this unit for a year and a half, during which I may have scanned two or three hundred 35mm negatives. A couple of weeks ago the unit failed and had to be returned to Polaroid for repairs, which start at $125. My other scanners have worked fine for many years without failure. I believe that a $1300 scanner (street price) should have a longer life than this, so my next scanner will be another Nikon.
