Does anyone out there know a good way to digitize 35mm slides OTHER than
taking video camera shots of the displayed slides and digitizing the vcr
output? Any help will be appreciated <DW>.

This method I explain is the ultimate way. And can be expensive. Best thing to
do is to go to the Post Production Facility House.

You can put your through the Telecine, and that out put put through the
D1, so you get Y,U,V, digital output, or put through D2, which is composite
Digital Output.

If you have access to a color flatbed scanner that doesn't take 
slides, (like some of the cheaper Sharp models, I think) you can always
get a an enlarged color print made of the slide and scan it.  Get a
pro-quality color lab to make the print for you. It shouldn't cost more
than $20 for an 8.5x11. (Kodak makes reversal color print paper
especially for printing slides.)

Unless you have a really good video camera and excellent digitizing
hardware,  scanning a transparency or print should produce a shaper image
(IMHO).
