Justin,(posted 8367 days ago)I normally load 12 frames (16 in all to account for the frames lost while loading the cassette and loading the camera) as a compromise between bringing many short rolls and being able to use different development times. I'm now saving up to buy a view camera.
Your idea will work but I personally don't have the patience to go through all this pain. More often than not I just end up adjusting for contrast using different filtration on VC paper. I've no doubt that the Zone System can be used with any format; however, horses for courses...
