When I use to shoot negatives, almost nearly every image stayed at
just 4x6. Out of many years of shooting maybe 3 or 4 ever made it to 8x10
(6.5x10).
Now that I am shooting slides, I feel that anything smaller than 8x10
just doesn't do them justice (and I find even that size a little
smallish). From shots from this year alone, I would say I have at
least 30 6.5x10s and several 16x24 and one 20x30.
