A film scanner scans slides or negatives.  In the case of slides obviously you 
get a 
positive image.  When a colour negative is scanned software inverts the image 
so you 
also end up with a positive image.

If your end purpose is to get your photos into the digital domain you can 
theoreticly shoot colour negative film, have the negative developed without 
printing then scan the negatives.

The quality that can be achieved with film scanners is very high.
