If you've got the original negatives (or slides) the best bet is a dedicated film scanner with the highest resolution you can afford - nowadays about 4000 dpi. A SCSI interface will help speed things up and the end product is best burned onto CD to avoid subsequent loss from the HD. It will also mean that you can use your 35mm 'proper' camera to generate digital output. Takes time but worth the effort.
