Nah, forget that idea, too fiddly, I'll just stash some film holders in my wife's bag. Maybe she won't notice.
My Favourite scene in "Eiger Sanction". Clint and George are training and make a hard climb up a sheer desert pinnacle. When they get to the top Clint offers George a beer. George says "Are you crazy? You carried beers all the way up here?". Clint reaches into George's pack, pulls out two beers, and says "No, you did."

Faster? Absolutely.
Better? I don't. My percentage of what I consider successful photos goes up using 5x7 or 8x10 goes up, compared to 35mm.
