I usually shoot Fujichrome Velvia and have had excellent luck with both 35
mm and 6x6 images. (Although it can be a little squirrely for some
flesh-tones.)
My photo lab -- I use a pro lab here in DC -- is scanning in about 120
slides and a few negatives I took at FC'00. As long as you have them
organized, you can use tools like imagemagick to output them at arbitrary
resolutions and stick them in a database.
I have one with about 300 photos that I'll publicly announce after I get
the FC00 shots up. It'll be the largest collection of cpunx images anywhere! :)
My plans to ever get a Nikon F100, let alone a Hasselblad, are probably

I'm still thinking of getting a used Hasselblad from B&H. I was there in
December and they had ones with the 50mm-equiv lens for close to $1,000.
