I had a Nikon one that I was happy with that ran about $150 when I bought it new. It was designed to work specifically with an older Nikon digital camera. I sold it (and the camera) when I upgraded to a digital SLR.

You could also have prints made from the slides (there are places that will do it) and then scan them. There are also a few places that will convert them from slide to digital for you, but the price per slide is usually a couple of dollars. Might be worth it if you only have 50 or so slides to do - cheaper than buying a new scanner.

Personally, I would love to see those old shots!

Hope that helps...
