Do you all think a medium format camera is a good idea for travel??

The mental list I have compiled so far:

Pro:
Medium Format, larger negative, on slide film, unbeatable.
It makes me slow down and think about the shots more, thus better shots.
BIG BIG BIG film real estate
Tripod needed, so every shot will be clear and sharp.

Con:
Bulky
Probaby will require an external light meter
Tripod requirements, lugging around a tripod.
Film might be hard to find in other countries and tourist locations vs. 35mm which is everywhere.

Anything else to add?

Albert
