Maybe the part stating that the images must be taken in July should be bolded?

It's a personal decision. If funds were available we would buy the WR version, for the weather sealing. If funds were tighter the answer would be the non-WR.

You can indeed make negatives into slides, but I suspect the process may well be quite expensive now. Try The Darkroom Ltd.

Is it possible to add photos to this forum?

For portraits the optimum aperture might be f2.8 - f4 to blur the background.
For landscapes maybe f16 to maximise DOF. The smallest aperture is usually best avoided, but the option is there where the absolute maximum DOF is required.

Cupboards are full of chemicals from varnishes, poor air circulation and warm conditions encourage fungus growth, and if it becomes damp that's a recipe for disaster.
