I shoot mainly with my 5D these days and prefer it over the APS offerings, but since starting uni and getting to use the Hasselblads and Rollie's with 6x6 film is making see a whole other world of possibilities.

I'm amazed to see no one (so far) shoots large format film, I thought there might be dozens of AP members using film at larger than 35mm

I've been wrong before!! Happy to have constructive criticism though.Gear used Canon 50D, 7D & 5DMkII plus expensive things hanging off their fronts and of course a "nifty fifty".
There are SIX using medium format film. That is larger than 35mm, and the poll indicates that the number of forum respondents using medium format film is almost 1/10 of total respondents.
--=3 In Veritas Lux E=--
Bodies: Canon EOS 5D Mk II, Canon EOS 550D
Lenses: EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM, EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM, EF 50mm f/1.4 USM
Strobist: 2 x Speedlite 580EXII, 4 x Yongnuo RF-603 Radio Tranceivers, Yongnuo ST-E2 IR Transmitter
3 x Manfrotto Light Stands, 2 x Softboxes, 2 x Bounce Brollies

Umm large format film is traditionally considered to be 5 x 4 inch, 10 x 8 inch etc
Medium format film is generally any film in the 120mm format.
And its also worth noting that the question is what is the PRIMARY format ? So while I dont doubt the respondents to the poll, it would surprise me if there was more than two or three who were shooting medium format film as their PRIMARY format. Having a multiple choice answer is therefore a tad misleading as PRIMARY in this context would indicate first choice, so multiple answers would therefore be confusing.
And who are the other 2 shooting medium format digital?
Ah, JM Tran is one, that's half my question answered.

I am lucky enough to have the 5D full frame (would love the 5D MkII) and have recently graduated from the 30D APS 1.6 crop to the 1D MkIII with a 1.3 crop.
