The big challenge now, aside from the steep learning curve, is to find a way to digitize the 120 and 4x5 negatives. I would get a Epson V700, but I am out money for this project

Try and pick yourself up a Epson 4490 (photo) or 4990 (cheap!) and pick yourself up some of
these holders. I think you will be pleasantly surprised...with well exposed shots. Those scanners can often be picked up for less than $100 notes.
The Microtek i900 is also supposed to be really good for Large format work.
Silverfast software is nice, but complicated, I've had some good fun with vuescan, but ended up using the bundled epson software (which is updated on epson website).
Have fun!
