Peter, I think you might be surprised by the number of news types who have an M stuck away somewhere in their bag of tricks. I have known quite a few who use the M system when it is best to use. Yes most working shooters, news and otherwise use AF Canon and Nikon. But many also use the M for its discreetness and quietness for working close in quite settings. At my first newspaper there were 2 photographers who used M's, in Nashville I know of 2 newspaper shooters who have an M tucked away somewhere, in Atlanta I knew quite a few photogs who had the m's in reserve. Just seeing them in their daily work you would never know it as they used the Nikon/Canon for most of their shooting. But when needed they would pull out the M.
