Lens focal length will decide camera choice.
Few lenses in a# 1 shutter will cover 8x10 and they will be of short_ish focal length.
Majority of 8x10 lenses will be in a# 3 shutter or larger.
Typical copal# 1 shutter tops out about 1/400 sec and they are typically never 1/400 sec.
Typical copal# 3 shutter tops out about 1/125 sec and they are typically never 1/125 sec.
Exception being a Electronic Compur# 3 which tops out at 1/200 and is typically 1/200 sec.
Essentially, lens choice drives camera and know 8x10 lens choices are limited, often Very limited..
Curious, why 8x10 and what possible advantages could 8x10 offer your image goals?
