I've got some very good 8 X 10's from print film shot on 35mm. Even have an 11 X 14. I don't have the patience to work with sheet film. Got an old camera at a swap meet that uses 5 X 7 film. The seller loaded some film into a couple of film holders and I went out and tried it. Many steps involve with shooting sheet film. I have to hand to folks that do this type of photography. My medium format photography is done with a 645 Pentax. The 6 X 7 is too big for my small hands, and I don't like the weight.
