For me as well. Unfortunately I found that if I had both available that I ended up using the smaller format more simply because it was more convenient. But the end results always frustrated me. Lacking the self control that many here seem to have, my solution was to mothball the 35mm (I couldn't even give it away to any of my family or friends -- not digital and all). I tell everyone (and myself) that the only camera I have is the 5x4.
So I don't make as many photographs as I used to. But the photographs I do make are much more satisfying.
And it's gotten me out of photographer duties at my niece's wedding! As I told her mother: I don't have the equipment for people photography ;-)
