Thank you!!! do you know any good brands of film scanners to look for?

also - I was thinking of foregoing the used cameras and opting for a newer one - what do you know about these:

Mamiya RB67 (or the 645 series)
Nikon F5 or N90
Cannon EOS (Elan, 2000, 2000 QD, or the 1,3, or 5 model)

i want one that is compatible with a soft focus lens and i know the mamiya is, but I am not sure of the difference in 35mm and medium formats for portrait/model work.

Thanks!!!! michele

There are many books at a local library or big bookstore that you should read before spending thousands of dollars on equipment if you don't already know the differences between medium format and 35mm.  By the nature of your questions, you should educate yourself more with the basics.  

Go look at the books first.   Read and learn.  They will provide much more info than you will get on this forum in a few responses.

Go visit photo.net and look at the user forums (under community) and read the archives.  You will get many opinions there.  Much more than you will get on this forum.  

Good luck, 
Steadman
