For one thing you need more magnification. An inch tall flower shot life-size on a 35 mm negative fills the frame. In a 4x5 negative it's just a little one inch tall blob in the center of the image. You have to move in closer to get a larger image if you want to fill the frame. Now you've got a lot less light falling on the film, and you don't have a nice TTL meter to help you out."
