Mark,
Ice is handy that's for sure but using it actually takes the overall scan quality backwards.. If you scan a slide with it turned off an dthen again turned on it's visible ..But yes less work..

  But there is no Digital-Ice in a camera. If you got old dirty slides or negs, you have lots of work to do after you shoot.
