One thing you might consider is getting your own slide scanner. You can get something in the 2800 dpi range for about $250.
I'm probably going to put off getting a digital camera for a few more years until the price/resolution ratio improves. I have a lot of Nikon glass, so I would want a body that accepts those lenses. The D-1 is too expensive.
There's nothing wrong with the 2020. The AF is a bit slow, and it's pretty heavy. But it gives you access to (almost) the whole line of Nikon lenses.
Most of my photography is done with an old FM, or a FA when I want TTL flash. Most of the older Nikons are incredibly robust, and I'm not particularly gentle with cameras.
