I think the difference between hand-held cameras and Large format may be mental rather than equipment oriented. I've used a Nikon like a view camera. (though rarely a view camera like a Nikon.) Just depends on your approach to subject matter.
This guy has an interesting approach to breaking down the problems in simple ways: http://robertlangham.blogspot.com/. He's got a book called the Blackfork Guide on Blurb that lays it out in very plain terms. Pretty good about posting regularly and putting up images. Shoots 5X7 out of a Deardorff.
This might be of help to somebody. It's a video from Shiprock, looking over the South dike at dawn and just after. I spent the night in a little sleeping bag cover up on a split boulder. It's tough, snakey country, with poltergeists, so be careful. Had been up on several trips so I knew where I was and was going. Set up before dawn. Sunrise about 7:03. Light over by 7:10.
5X7 Deardorff with a 120 Super Angulon on it. Polarized, I believe. Ilford HP5 in Xtol.
