For those experienced in both 8x10 and 4x5 photography, how do the methods and the types of scenes or subject matter photographed differ between the two formats?
I know there's been quite a bit of discussion on 4x5 vs. 8x10. But, I'm really interested.
For example, I took a couple of John Sexton workshops in the last few years, and he said at one point that he's a 4x5 person. He has an 8x10 somewhere in his storage areas, but he wasn't sure where. He just doesn't use 8x10.
Do people see differently in 4x5 versus 8x10? Might the different sizes between the two format affect the quality of the compositions?
How tough is it to achieve depths of field that's readily available in 4x5?
