Along with the idea that he was hunting for greys would mean he only  
got that camera out of his pocket when the light and subject matched  
these parameters - I don't bite into this Mark.
He definitely made last second adjustments - f8 1/125th 5m 400ASA may  
have been his "ever-ready" settings, nothing else i.e. the neutral of  
manual camera gearbox...
Yes, I know it is known his tireur had a hell of time with his negs...
