RE: [Leica] For anyone who still thinks that digital isn't really...

["Daniel Ridings" <dlridings@hotmail.com>]

I hear that a lot of the digital stuff is being bought by companies ... not 
photographers who have to invoice their costs. A friend of mine, a 
successful freelancer, now for AP, is totally digital, so it's not all 
companies and corporations. He wouldn't be able to hold his job without it. 
He hasn't gone into a darkroom for several years and hasn't used film for 
about three. He's your photojournalist. Let's see if I remember his link 
correctly:
