EDIT: This title and post should read "downsize" not "downgrade." I couldn't think of the appropriate word at the time.
I decided to make this a "sister" thread to this one. I'm curious if any of you "downgraded" from 8x10 to 4x5 for reasons beyond just health or fitness and why you did so.
I thought about it hard this weekend.
I decided I won't go from 4x5 to 8x10 despite the temptation because:
1) The price.
2) I often want to print a size larger or smaller than 8x10.
3) The subject matter I like the most usually requires some speed.
4) I've walked miles with my Crown Graphic in my backpack. I could still get a 4x5 with even more movements, less weight, and a smaller footprint.
Moderator's note: just saw this now, I've revised the thread title. -- Oren
