I got the Press camera because I wanted big negatives, but stopped short of large format because I thought sticking with the convenience of roll film might help to get used to a few other new aspects such as focal plane tilt and shift with the rear bellows, ground glass focusing with a loupe, manual metering, etc... it reminds me a lot of astro a year ago, so many moving parts to get right, I'm really enjoying it.
For now, I'm still struggling to consistently load and unload my 35mm film, so I have a long way to go
Keep me posted how your portra 400 trial went.
Cheers Kanga
