Am posting my first 5x7 neg scans from the trip, the negs look beautiful! The 120mm lens seemed to work better than the 210mm for me. With the 120mm your using a shorter focal length than the 210 and also shooting at a smaller aperture f8 versus f5.6. As a result the negs show more sharpness, depth of field etc. I think I might only use the 120mm next trip and shelve the 210mm. The 120mm set at f8 regardless of how much light I have might become my standard. The 5x7 negs are indicated in the titles, the other film formats included below are 35mm and 120mm.
Here are the scans:
