You're slamming it without having seen or touched one yet? What, do you blog for a competitor? Who the hell cares whether it autofocuses if the scans are sharply focused or can be made so?
While I have AF on my Konica Minolta DiMage Scan Elite 5400, the manual focusing knob is what I've always used for critically focusing, every image. (To hit 100 lp/mm, it's really worth all the bother.)
