No Minolta scanner is made anymore. No Minolta camera either :-)
The 5400 was the best model of the Minolta range. Optional Scanhancer 
added to reduce grain aliasing.
The Nikon 35mm models came second.
The Canon 35mm models had a lower resolution  and so did the Polaroid ones.

In MF sizes the Nikon 9000 is still made but depending on market demand 
so availability varies.

The Hasselblad/Imacon models are still available but for that price you 
can do better qualitywise with a secondhand drum scanner that has been 
overhauled.


I'm using a Nikon 8000, Epson V700, Umax Mirage II. All with fluid 
mounting if required.
