There are, however, alternatives to Nikon scanners just as good
or, for certain applications, perhaps better. The Minolta Dimage Scan
Elite 5400 comes to mind, perhaps because there's one sitting on my
desk. Take a look at
http://www.shutterbug.net/test_reports/1203sb_thenew/ Take your time
and investigate the features of Nikon, Minolta and Canon as they apply
to what you want to do before you decide. There is a wealth (sometimes
I think too much) information on the web. Good luck.

And the Minolta DIMAGE SCAN DUAL 4 is pretty good - only 3200dpi, but a
fair bit cheaper ...
