A thread I will return to. I will just throw a thought or two into the pot in the mean time.

I have used 5x4 and 6x4.5, 6x6 and 6x9 on 120. The most obvious difference in the use of these formats over 35mm/digital, is that with a bigger neg to show up poor sharpness, then a SOLID TRIPOD was ALWAYS used.

As far as MEDIUM FORMAT is concerned then we are ranging through 6x4.5, 6x6, 6x7, 6x8 and 6x9. With each size increase comes bigger and heavier kit if we are talking SLR. Tripods required go in the same direction.

I would not argue that a 6x7 - 6x9 image will amaze but a Mamiya 6x7 is quite a beast, and a Fuji GX680, IS A BEAST.
