Out of the 4 available the Caldari and Minmatar are disqualified for having bonuses to weapon systems since the one I'll be flying won't be armed.
That leaves the Anathema and Helios. The Anathema has an odd bonus to capacitor. I'm not sure how useful this bonus actually is. The Helios on the other has a drone bonus and I'm not sure how I feel about that. In case of rogue drones ambush maybe? The ship can't tank at all so I'm not sure how useful the drones will be.

It really depends on what you want to do with it.
Pure scouting, it probably doesnt matter.
For WH space i personally prefer the Helios. That one drone may not seem like much, but you actually can kill T1 haulers running their PI, or scan alts flying in T1 scan frigs etc. I prefer the drone to a local gun as it gives me more range choices
If you want additional high slot options, such as a salvager, or cyno, along with a probe launcher, then the helios falls short. |

A salvager would be great.
The main purpose is gravimetric scanning but also defensive scanning for enemy ships. If while scanning for asteroid belts I would find something worth poking with a salvager or hacking device then that would be great too.

They all have two Frigate Skill bonuses. The Anathema on the other one has one combat and one capacitor instead of two combat.

anathema is also cheaper than all the others for some reason if that influences your choice at all.
Also the cap bonus means it can do longer warps which can be useful sometimes. |

The cap bonus technically counts as combat because of the high cap drain of amarr weaponry, but then again it can be used for other things. |

It doesn't really matter which one you use. They can all fit the same probe launcher and the same scanning rigs. The rest is just minor details.
From a PVP point of view I prefer the Cheetah since it is faster, which is nice when trying to make good warpins, but it is also a PITA to fit.

To be honest with you, your reasons for excluding ships is flawed imo. What you need is a cloak, probe and a prop mod. The rest is possibly unimportant. I can however say that my buzzard has escaped many an attempt to be grabbed in wh space simply because with its natural shield buffer and enough slots to put an OK passive buffer.
I have on many occasion been uncloaked and managed to get away in low armor or structure thanks to some shield amps. My lows have warp core stabs in them and the rigs are scanning.
You also mentioned salvaging and and hacking, but you exclude the one ship that has enough highs and mids to do what you want based on a bonus you have no plans to use...

I see many people discounting the usefulness of having a gun on your covops, trust me, it's worth it (unless you want the high foir a covops cyno), you can gank unsuspecting haulers and other covops, I fly a Cheetah and fit mine with scram/web/mwd and a 200mm AC in the high and have actually managed to snag a couple haulers and enemy covops. |

For the hell of it, I fit a rocket launcher II on one of my covops on a probing alt. I scanned down a neutral destroyer that logged off with aggro and got a solo kill with my Buzzard. The whole time I was shooting him I was thinking, "This is gonna be really awesome unless he logs back on!" |

I'm excluding the helios for lacking a high slot. As for the other three they have the same amount of high and mid slots.
I'm not fitting tank on my CO ship at the cost of it's efficiency to do its job. I'll have ten shipped up to be sure and if I get caught I'll just grab another one.

I think the Helios is probably the best one unless you're looking to use that third high slot for something interesting (covops cyno). The biggest problem with the Helios, to me, is that they nerfed the hell out of its looks. I generally fly the Anathema now.

Warp Disruptor II
Remote Sensor Dampener II
Fleeting Propulsion Inhibitor I

And then keeping the cyno offline per default and in case I ever end up needing one I can offline the MWD and activate it.
Other than that it feels like a waste to have a salvager in the third high slot which was my other alternative.
On and help me find an answer for this question: Can enemy drones attack you without the enemy ships having locked you? Because if they can then the sensor damp won't be of much use.

The best Probe ship come June 4th is any ship you can physically undock from Station in!! CCP is basically dumbing down probing so much that any ship with the base skill of Astrometrics LvL 1 (which every new player after June 4th starts with) will be able to find all but the hardest sigs. Scanning support skills will have such a lowered effect from now that all of us who trained them up to 4/5 essentially wasted that time. Now, to be fair, having said support scanning skills won't HURT and will help you find those pesky little 1.27% results, but I digress.
I'm not upset about the changes but I wish CCP hadn't taken the blanket approach to the new system, in that they're making it all basically the same with no real value to increasing one's skills (especially support skills) in scanning, or even bother with Imps.

I like the Buzzard for probing, with it's slot layout it has utility as a covert cyno or suicide point ship when needed.
Outside of the probing I have to say the a brawl fit Helios is bloody fantastic as an unexpected combat ship - 145dps (nearly 160 with void), twin webs, nearly 6k ehp against lowest resist and almost guaranteed to be engaged.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine. |

Not much difference between a covops fit for lowsec or hisec exploration. Nanos in the lows, profession mods in the mids, cloak, probes, offensive module. Medium Ancillary Shield booster is nice for tanking the random spawns and staying on the cans (I dual box a scanner who cracks the cans and an Ishtar/Proteus to handle the rats so I can run every site I find), but the major downside of covert ops is the lack of dps- there are many mag/radar sites with plenty of rats. While it's technically possible to for example drone kite them with a Helios, it's really not that sensible.
For this reason I'd go for the T1 versions, come with more combat potential and also bonus to the profession mods.
However, things will change a lot in a few weeks- skill changes and the new modules will make scanning a lot easier, and you'll probably be able to scan well with just about any ship with enough slots to dedicate for scanning enhancers... but they will also remove the rats from mags and radars, so the decision is mostly about what you want to do- combat exploration sites can be much more lucrative, and all scanning frigates are bad for those.

you do know that rat's can still spawn in prof. sites because of a trigger?
there is no initial spawn, but they still can show up....
btw, are prof. sites in lowsec more rentable than hisec? is it worth the risk? |

Considering that they haven't started tech II teiricide I think is a poor decision to make a ship choice based on the current covert ops ships. Picking the one you like looking at the most has extra meaning now since that's all that's likely to be the same. |

Yes but it's a Tengu. It's a carebear mission running ship. I can't bring that to null. I'm going to look like a douche.
Might as well stick a T1 cloak and a probe launcher on a faction battleship for all the laughs I'll get anyway in that case.

If you want to squeeze combat in. Afterburner is very situational - in w-space, mwd is normally way preferred for zipping away from wormholes after jumping. With a mwd, you won't get caught by a lone sabre. |

I can scan down sights and clear them with 1 ship, no swaping ships, .. swap out the modules as you think would best suit your needs, these suit me fine for what I use it for (over kill in most cases, as I operate in high sec space for the current time being, at least until back from deployment)
with the new scan modules (midslot) incomeing possibly, can swap out some of the over kill defensive stuff and replace with those
my skills and this ship, put the probes at a base sensor strength of 114.8 (vs 44 base sensor strength unmodified)
Ed Yes but it's a Tengu. It's a carebear mission running ship. I can't bring that to null. I'm going to look like a douche. Might as well stick a T1 cloak and a probe launcher on a faction battleship for all the laughs I'll get anyway in that case.
The only reason you would wan't a Tengu is that you can ignore bubbles... which this fit can't.
Anyways, after the patch with the new modules we might actually see T3s become even better probers than Covert Ops ships because of more midslots to fit them... |

The only thing that sucks with Helios is that puking design a-la golf man. For probing the 4 of them are nice but don't do anything else than probe or fit guns and bait other frigs, to clean your sites use another ship.
