If you are a bit technically inclined, I would highly recommend a Leafscan45. For color, it is slower than current scanners, as it is a three pass scanner, but for B&W, it has a true B&W mode (does not scan B&W in RGB) and is as fast as a modern scanner, and IMO gives superior results. The software is spartan, but complete and will allow you to get exceptional scans with no (IMO unnecessary) frills. It handles any format up to 4x5 that you can get a Beseler 45 holder for, and has a very superb set of rotating film holders. If you are interested, I can tell you more. If you scan mostly B&W, it's really a good option, given the quality of the scans and the format flexibility. For color, as I said, though it gives exceptional scans, it can be slow.
