"Also" is the right word--though he uses M's more than R's, he does use both
(heard him at RIT a couple of years ago).  HIs equipment is incredibly basic
(small, non-dedicated flash and an M with a couple of wide angles for most
shots; Tri-x and T-Max 3200).  It was fun watching the RIT students try to
get him to tell them the technical secrets that would let them take pictures
as good as his--but of course there were no technical secrets!
