My advice would be to get your film transferred in 24p, and then once you
have the transferred footage, play it at half speed. Technically if it's
playing at exactly 50% there should be no ghosting, but if there is you can
easily make an image sequence of your footage and then import it all back
into FCP and make the duration of each individual tiff two frames in length
instead of one on your timeline. (Just remember to adjust the duration in
your preferences before importing.)

Regards,

Dave
