[Leica] Check out April 5 Newsweek. (No Leica content)

She. I believe she's shooting for Reuters. And I have to say, having
seen some of the work somewhere - can't remember where - there's nothing
particularly outstanding about it; it's solid, if not inspired, pj work.
What it has going for it is the gimmick. ;-) Don't forget, one can shoot
for "revealing moments through a minimal number of exposures" with any
camera, though I don't see how shooting a minimal number of exposures is
more likely to capture revealing moments.

Yes. I recently read about the political campaign photographer who has
gone 
full-bore contrairian. Rather than capture hundreds of digital images,
he 
shoots for revealing moments through a minimal number of exposures.

What a concept.

Okay, retrophilia addicts, there's a two-page photo that begins "The 
Insider," page 20 in the edition mailed to Denver.

What camera do you see standing above all others in the puddle of
photogs?

BONUS observation: There's a conclusion one might draw from the photo,
but, 
to do so would marginalize the journalistic credentials of the female 
professional photographers on the list who are not fat, or grey, or
bald.
