No problem -- this is something that regularly comes up.

And what about that using a technical camera that has slight movements [tilt/shift] with digital LF lens but with digital back, is that considered as large format or medium format?
No point in starting a thread on what constitutes acceptable format size for this forum, just look at the forum guidelines. From the Large Format Forum FAQ.
"For the purposes of this forum, we define "large format" as being essentially 4x5, or larger, sheet film. We do, however, allow what would otherwise be considered "medium format" sizes, IF exposed in a view camera (e.g. with a roll-film adapter), technical, or old-style press camera (e.g. the various Graphic cameras)."
Work from medium format digital backs is also allowed if exposed in a view camera, technical or old-style press camera.

Just a suggestion from an old-timer: check out some of the past masters like Ansel Adams and Edward Weston, users of view cameras back in the 1920s and 1930s (Weston) and 1930s, '40s and '50s (Adams). Their images are still printed today in books and calendars as well as hung in museums. Personally, I like to include one or more small humans or animals in my landscapes to give scale, and I think it can enable some viewers to project themselves into the scene, sharing the photographer's experience.
Meanwhile, enjoy the adventure! Best, Richard
