Subject: [Leica] New book

The English magazine "Professional Photographer" carries a review of a new
book by Eric Valli in its March edition.   The book, titled "Hunting for
Honey: Adventures with the Raji of Nepal" was published on 15 March by
Thames & Hudson, but the work first featured in National Geographic last
summer.

It would seem that Valli favours Leica equipment and his camera bag contains
M6's, R7's and R8's.   "The Leica lenses are excellent" he says.   "I often
work at 2.8 or 1.4 in low light when you really have to push a lens and I
have found they are the best".

Thought it may be of interest!
