I wouldn’t spend $8k on the leica, but a dedicated Black and White sensor at a reasonable price, yes, yes I would…MaxMax does it, but I haven’t seen any reviews of the camera, but the examples on their site are impressive…

And is the Leica treated as a color image in RAW since there is no B&W RAW.
Honestly, what I do for Black and White is to still shoot film. Ilford Pan F 50 and my Minolta Maxxum 7 are hard to beat.
Love your podcasts Frederick, really, and thanks for another great show. Valerie I know, and it was great to meet Dan and Ron.
I really enjoyed the interview with Charles McPherson in the audio version of the podcast. Very informative indeed!

How about making a memory card that can hold 32 images. Without been able to erase them using your camera.
You had that question from a listener who was asked to do a wedding for $800 for a friend. You suggested they not. That’s fine, but don’t get upset if your mechanic friend or house painter acquaintance won’t give you a discount simply because they’re your friend. That’s what friendship is about, helping each other. Newsflash, we’re in a recession and money’s tight.
While photography is a art, don’t get caught up in your own importance. Sure, your rate might be $3,000 or whatever, but it’s still just a picture and as much as I truly respect a good photo and the work that goes into it, 20 years from now it’s the memories the pictures will evoke, and they’ll evoke those same memories whether taken with a D70 or a Polaroid Instamatic.
