If you are going to use llamas, you might as well go to 8x10. In fact, some
would say you need at least a 20x24 inch camera to justify investing in
llamas. Others say a 12x17 is adequate.

For a 4x5 all you need is a bicycle. How many here are aware that the famed
Speed Graphic was a derivative of the bicycle camera from the end of the
1800s? That was the purpose of the lunchbox design. You strapped your tripod
to the frame, hung the camera from the handle bars, put a couple of film
holders in your coat pocket (gentlemen always wore coats) and away you went
for a day of fun and photography.
