>Just wondering how many more....

I know this is going to turn into a rediculous thread -- but I'll wager that
everybody in Magnum has a Leica. Whether or not they use it is an entirely
different story. Mary Ellen Mark (also of Magnum fame) I know has a bunch
and has had even more in the past. Though this is not to say that when she
goes out on a shoot she has a Leica on her shoulder. Although Leica made her
fameous, she mostly shoots with Canon EOS, Hasselblad, and a 4x5. I suspect
most photographers are like that -- they pull out the Leica only when they
need it....

Did anybody see the National Geographic show "Afghanistan Revealed"? it
looked like a commercial for the M6. They even showed one getting loaded. (a
camera you purient dopes!)
