I have shot with many formats and the view camera, large format, was always a delight. I still have a Burke and James 4X5 view camera with 22 inch bellows and an Ektar 105 mm F 5.6 lens. I loved to fool around with the tilt and shift and other features of the camera. A plate held only two negatives and you saw the image up side down. It was slow and each shot had to count. I'm not going to comment on the complicated developing aspects. Those were happy days indeed.
