Subject: [Leica] Leica Lens Book

Yesterday I received my copy of the new lens book from Leica.  The
information and photographs in the lens section are very good, although I
would have liked more info and photos.  However, the Photo Tour photographs
by Ralph Gibson are pure Garbage!  With the exception of maybe 3 photos,
they are all nothing but out of focus, severely in most cases, junk photos.
Granted, 'Artsy' photography is not my bag, but these are a pure waste of
good film.  I had hoped to see some good depictions of the factory and the
processes used to produce Leica products.  If I had shot what Mr. Gibson
did, I would have trashed them immediately, or my wife would have.
