Yes, or I hire a high school student to do it for me.

Yes, there was a fix for the LS-4000 that involved taping a credit 
card to prevent more than one slide from entering the feeder 
slot.  The fix on the LS-5000 reduces the space to achieve the same thing.

>5000?

Greater dynamic range.  More precise focusing.  Flatter film 
plane.  Those are claims.  I just know the scans from the 5000 are an 
improvement.
