There is nothing like an 8x10 slide on a light table.
I recently took some people's advice when I sold my 4x5, and that was to get Bruce Wehman to make me a 4x5 back for my 8x10. I have that now. I have not used it once because every time I go out, I want to have 8x10 loaded up and adding the extra stuff for the 4x5 just complicates everything.
But then again, I am concentrating on detail-oriented urban landscapes at the moment. If I were shooting atmospheric, long exposure beach scenes as I might one day, I probably wouldn't care as much. I think it really amounts to picking the right tool for whatever your purpose is.
