It's easier to handle the 4x5. But I've used the 35mm before. You will
get better results taking it out of the paper frame though for a flatbed
that doesn't have a way for you to specifically handle 35mm. It basically
ruins the paper frame, but plastic ones are easy to come by at most
places that scan 35mm on a drum and will usually give one to you free.
And the plastic one is the snap on/off variety which is reasonably
reuseable (for a while anyway).
