[Leica] WEBINAR-Phase One XF medium format camera system

[Mark Rabiner]

Its set to go off at 4am right at my peak time! I went to a thing they had
in the real world in Lower Manhattan. I got a gift basket worth millions.
I've not reached the bottom of it yet. Many of the objects in side I know
now what it is or does. Its hard to look up an object on Bing. You cant take
a picture with your iPhone and send it too them. there's no "them".
