Work with the EOS, pose with the Leica..." Is that like saying that there is an element of truth to the statement 'Porsches are only good for showing off to the neighbors'? I say it is hyperbole, not truth. Of course, I am not a working news photographer so what do I know. I guess I am bored today, waiting for it to get dark so I can make some prints. - - marc > > James Mason > > >i was going to make the same observation myself about mr. mason > >after the "pose with the Leica" post. > > > >pity; he was so memorable as professor humbert humbert ... > > > >-rei > > > > -- > -- > To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
