There are a number of people, Henning, Bob Adler, George etc. Who STILL
shoot with 35mm (Leica, Nikon or otherwise), medium format, and 4x5/8x10.
4 frames is not the same 4 frames :-)  it took me 15 mins to get 4 shots of
Herb and his wive. I would have gotten 12 if I am using a Hassy and a
couple dozen with my M9 or E3.
