There is an article on Roger Pic, who is now 90, and one of the accompanying photos is a full page color picture taken by him showing young Che Guevara in combat outfit 1961,sitting on a fence and holding a Leica with a Visoflex and checking the aperture setting or something. Seem he was a bit short sighted because he holds the camera so close to his face it covers the tip of his cheek. The same issue also has a long technical article about PGI vs RMS (Print Grain Index vs Root MeanSquare) I'll try to read it if we get a prolonged peroiod of bad weather. It also has some news about new products for Photokina. Nothing Leica that Leica has not already told us about - -- Christer Almqvist D-20255 Hamburg, Germany and/or F-50590 Regnéville-sur-Mer, France
