In "The Right Stuff" the press conference of the astronauts standing in
front of the new Mercury Space capsule was portrayed with a bunch of
photographers all with Speed Graphics covering it.
I assume this was accurate and says a lot to me about how far we've come
in how long.

These guys are going to the moon and it's being covered with leather
covered wood mahogany cameras and flashbulbs.
Roll film? Too new fangled!!

I wish i had a speed graphic in operating condition.
