Anyone used scanhancer and is it any good? I have a Canon FS4000US but when
enlarging my scans of negs and slides they always look grainy (at 4000dpi).
I also wondered about the merits of using Vuescan or Silverfast instead of
Filmget. Any advice or tips appreciated

The Scanhancer accessory was specifically engineered for the DiMAGE Multi
Pro. It balances patternless light diffusion, light absorption and heat
build-up.

Whether that would work on the FS4000 is a guess.
IMO you are more likely to have acceptable results with a postprocessing
tool such as Neat Image (free demo version at http://www.neatimage.com/). It
will not only remove film graininess, but also scanner noise in a single
operation.
