go up incrementally. start 4x5 and keep going if you want. the larger you go the more issues you run into...ie: film and bellows reciprocity, size of darkroom/trays, etc. Find a simple easy camera and pick a lens. Make sure your exposures are good. I use the zone system and I used to use the pentax spot meter but haven't used a meter in years. I use one film, one developer, one paper etc. Thus, I keep it simple and I can now read the light for the film I use. Hope that helps

I make a commitment to the image so I do not take many photographs.

I still prefer the 12x20 view camera. I like Super-xx film and Azo paper. I still use Pyro developer and amidol for the paper. I inspection develop and contact print only. I have the new Fuji medium format camera for over a year and have taken 3 photos with it. It is a different sensibility using a view camera which slows down time for you.
