I'm hoping in another 9 months perhaps I¹ll go full circle and phase in the
darkroom again, Paul. For more of a mix.
Perhaps I¹ll output some Photoshop tweaks to 4x5 film black and white neg.
and print that!
Or output it to 8x10 and go outside on a sunny day and platinum print that.
Not done that yet but I think it¹s having a comeback perhaps for that
reason. No more need to have to shoot 8x10 negs.

And I¹ve never done large format much. I feel a wave of that stuff coming
on.
All I¹ve got is the 210 lens. I may start cranking out 4x4 negs. and flat
bedding them.
I just got a 4870 I bet my output would far exceed what you¹d get with a
40,000 film capture back or camera. If there is such a thing for that much.

I wonder how cheap a scanner you¹d need to scan sheet film and outdo
everybody else shooting DSLR's?

My guess would be 99 bucks! :) And that may be true.
