Home scanners have shown little technical innovation over the past few years. However, HP's Scanjet G4050 has broken the mould with the first so-called six-colour scanner, using two lamps to provide RGB feedback plus extra colour information.

The HP Scanjet G4050 is a solid dual-lamp scanner that could use a driver overhaul and a better means of handling slides.
Excellent scans; especially of very saturated originals; Very nice industrial design
Only supports sRGB colour space; Random colour registration problems on slide scans; Weak driver; Many operations are very slow
you've almost certainly heard of six-color printing, with the extra ink colors making it easier to print at true photo quality. but i'll bet you haven't heard about six-color scanning . that's because the scanners you're used to all use three colors for scans.
Six-color scanning yields excellent color quality; Scans photographic prints and film; Can scan up to 16 slides at once
Scan software is cumbersome in some ways and sometimes slow to react to a command
