Hi.

I have old SCSI based Polaroid SprintScan 35 and SCI Agfa DuoScan T-1200 flatbed scanners. Both were quite good back in their day. I need to scan some slides again, so wondering if what's better and more cost effective - a SCSI adaptor for my Mac Pro or to buy a new scanner for 35mm slides? It's not something I'll need and use every day, so I can't justify paying a lot.

Any suggestions? Anyone else in this boat with old SCSI gear?

Thanks and best wishes,

~ Richard Brooker
