I think it was an M4, and it appeared to be through several wars. That alone convinced me that these bodies are durable. Seeing a guy with a beret and a light meter shooting street in DC was like stepping back into the 1960's. And Steve was a bit like something from the 60's. Good guy.

Coincidentally Sonny Carter and myself were discussing Steves' work yesterday and we wondered if his site was still up.
