How do you select the films that you use?

Michael Fox Photography - FAQ
Testing, testing and more testing. I conduct film tests to determine the film's characteristic response to different lighting conditions. I conduct tests to determine how the film will perform when scanned. Finally I consult the manufacturer's data sheets. I check reciprocity failure times, grain size and other characteristics. Ultimately I select both a transparency and a negative film.

How do you select which type of camera to use?

Michael Fox Photography - FAQ
Each situation is different,. My general rule of thumb is to use the largest format that is practical for the particular situation. Some general guidelines are as follows: Grand landscapes: I use a large format view camera. Today, I shoot large format film in that camera. As digital sensors get better, I hope to eventually switch to a view camera with a digital back. Sometimes, it's just not practical to have the big camera with me so I'll use medium format or 35mm/DSLR.
