Canon FS4000 question

I've recently returned to shooting slides instead of negative film and
was wondering if there is any "best" way to feed them into my Canoscan
FS4000. Is there any advantage to using the film carrier or the slide
carrier? Would there be any advantage to having my slides not mounted
and left in film strips to use in the film strip carrier?

If it matters, I am using Vuescan software.

Just wondering,
Gridley

It should not matter if the positive transparency is in a film strip or if
mounted in slides.

You would be able to scan up to 6 images in the film strip holder, and only
four images in the slide holder.

The only thing I would think about is the handling of the film. Film strips
would require a little more care to not scratch them.
