I, on the other hand, love both still photography and cinematography.
They both have magical powers to tell stories
in ways that words alone cannot.

The idea that an M or MM Leica can produce both impeccable stills
and remarkable motion pictures
and one can hold it in the palm of one's hand
instead of an old Panavision, or Arriflex, or Mitchell, or ?

simply gives a lover photo and cinema story telling chills and goosebumps.
