[Leica] Natalie really used a G1, not a leica

["Stewart, Alistair" <AStewart@gigaweb.com>]

For those of you interested in this, here's a couple of private mails
between Kyle and I yesterday.

Bummer for those who say the G1 ain't no good. (BIG GRIN, THAT WAS AN
ATTEMPT AT HUMOUR< LILITED FLMAES PLEASE)

Kyle,

thanks for the email.

You mean the still photo of herself that she supposedly takes by holding the
M3 at arms length, pointing her way?

You can tell from the way she focuses the 'cron in other footage that she's
a not had a tremendous amount of experience (Thumb underneath, rather than
on top).

I guess it's not surprising about the way the photo that shows up in the
video was made.

But I love the way the song speaks to what's running thorugh me when I'm out
on the streets with one body/lens (usually an m2, 4, 4-p, witha 35'cron) and
a pocket full of tri-x.

Now how does that sound for a title "pocket full of Tri-Xonite"

:=)

best of light.

she was shooting with the directors contax G1. the origional idea was to
use her shots in the video, but none of them "came out" so they eneded up
using photos taken by a professional photographer who was following them
during the shoot.

or so says VH1's "pop up video", where we get all our news these days.
