Ok, but that scanning back costs a lot last I looked. And it's
not so good for anything that actually moves while you're shooting.

As in time turn around "For one".
Some people still make albumen prints and coat glass plates,
but it's not so easy to coat your own slide film and make the
chemistry to process it and do all of this well.
Indeed.
You have to wonder whether Edward Weston, Elliot Porter and others
would be shooting LF if they had digital available.
