Happy New Year Richard,
I miss Scala. Unfortunately it's downfall was only 3 places in US to get it
processed,
and introduced at the beginning of digital use for pros. Really wasn't that
expensive,
just inconvenient outside of NYC, Miami, & LA for us amateurs. It does scan
very easy
although Vuescan doesn't have a setting for it so playing around to see
what output
is optimal for this B&W slide film.
Let me know what you think of images I scanned compared to B& W from color
 slides.
Shooting film & then scanning makes you think more & I can see why MF users
would go this route.
Seeya next year.
