I’m looking for the original film and slide holders for a Minolta DiMAGE Scan Multi PRO, specifically the FH-P1 and SH-P1. I’ve already checked eBay and done general web searches without success. Are there any realistic places to find these accessories, or is the best approach to buy a complete used scanner that includes them?

I doubt most people owning such a scanner are willing to part with the parts, as they haven't been in production for a long time and supplier stocks will have depleted years ago (if they could still be found after all the Minolta/Konica/Sony mergers).
Your best bet may be to look for someone trying to sell a scanner complete with the parts, either on eBay, Craigslist, etc. etc., or through stores dealing in used camera and/or computer equipment.

Generated from our catalog & community — verify before relying on it.
These holders are long discontinued, so finding them separately is difficult. Because many owners still need the accessories for their own scanners, they’re not often sold on their own, and any old supplier stock is likely gone.
The most practical option is usually to search for a complete used Minolta DiMAGE Scan Multi PRO package that already includes the FH-P1 and SH-P1. Check used marketplaces such as eBay, local classifieds, and stores that handle used camera or older computer/imaging equipment. If you do buy separately, confirm the exact holder model numbers and compatibility before purchasing.
