[OM] Scanning

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.
