Hmm. This is all from memory, because I don't have his books (at least 6) and articles (in Aperture etc) in front of me. I recall that he used a Plaubel 6x7 for his 'Paris Texas' book (called Written in the West) and that he has used a Leica M. His clear vision moves me, and his films (with Robbie Muller as DP) contain some of what I regard as the most enthralling and beautiful images ever included in a motion picture. Regards, Malcolm PS Please Mr Wenders, can we make a film together?
