I suspect that the Epson 1680 pro (firewire if you prefer)
may suit your needs. It comes bundled with the Silverfast
AI 5 calibration model software (and other software as well).
The downside is that scanning results in some very large
files so you must be prepared for such.

They can and the software will ONLY support the given
model scanner. It is, however, a fabulous product. I
use it on my Nikon LS-4000 (if I can get the computer
to rerecognize it) and my Epson 1680 pro firewire flatbed
(which can scan film as well)
