[Leica] Camera Phone Wars in Los Angeles! (you don't stand a chance)

[mark at rabinergroup.com (Mark Rabiner)]

Joel Gray the Master of Ceremonies from "Cabaret" both stage and screen
winning both a Tony and an academy award has had a few photo books published
as he is now also a photographer. His latest book was done with his cell
phone I read a thing on it in the NYTimes. They had the opening in Chelsea I
was down there but it was invitation only. That's ok I would have eaten all
of their brie. I did see the book at one point at a Bookstore. They kept the
pictures very small. I kind of hate that. "Let's see 'em" I say. Shouldn't
need a loupe to look at a book.
