Subject: [Leica] Kodachrome

Yesterday I had pleasure of looking through a book by Benjamin
Mendelwicz whose work I have seen regularily in Wooden Boat magazine and
elsewhere.  He has recently published a book called Wind, Water, & Wood
(or rearrange the order?).  In the introduction he briefly discusses
technique.  Most with 50 and 105 manual Nikkors and all with (recently
discussed on the LUG) K64.

The book is a testiment to the value of K64.  Clean, sharp, neutral,
deep, smooth.  Really an extraordinary bit of work.  Of course, it helps
to be rabid about boats.  Makes me want to shoot Kodachrome again.
