I just acquired a whole plate (6 1/2 x 8 1/2) parts camera from ebay (meaning some parts are missing) and am thinking of using the remaining parts to build a 7x11 camera. This raised the question, how many LFers are using each of these formats? I know there are a few who are using each (and both can be purchased new), but I haven't seen any poll or count. Is one more popular than the other?
Inquiring minds want to know (one, anyway).
Please indicate if you are using one or the other (or both) formats or if you are thinking of moving into one or the other.
Also, if you are so inclined, let us know what it is about each format that you like, especially compared to, say, the more conventional 8x10 format.
