I'm not sure if I understand your question but if they are using a DSLR like a Nikon or Canon or a MF digital back attached to a MF body like a 'Blad or Mamiya or even a Leica S2 then they aren't doing large format photography.
I've not looked at Wall's work in a while and when I did I found his output banal, maybe that's changed.
Jordan's worked has morphed into graphic art, IMO, which I find clever but boring.
Burtynsky has always been enjoyable for me though I've not seen his latest.
Aside from the LF issue, what makes their work so important and special?
