Seems interesting...
I could spot a few Nikons, a Nikkormat, a battered Leica and of course the 4x5 with the Schneider... ;)

It's a pretty graphic read, and I think only one of the four photogs is still alive.

Can't seem to find a release date anywhere... Anyone know when and where this will be released to the public?

Thought this was really great: http://lens.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/08/20/showcase-38/

Me neither... violent movies don't suit me at all.
Life's stressful enough like it is.

Thanks to Beck, I downloaded the book on my iPad last night. Wow, pretty crazy to be shooting film when people are shooting bullets! Ill stick to subjects that cant shoot back :)

Although I did get shot once by a clown with a flower that shot water ;)

I downloaded the book onto my Kindle last night based on the suggestions here. Looks good so far.
