Here’s a neat piece of camera gear you probably have never heard of. Back in the 1940s and 50s, a company called Haber & Fink used to modify Leica cameras by adding special lens ‘turrets.’ Only 200 were ever made, and a camera store in Ohio just got their hands on the 11th one.

Now that a little time has passed I thought I would put together a post on my experiences covering the crazy at the recent Republican and Democratic Conventions in Cleveland and Philly respectively.
It is a tough shoot. When youre at an event with 15,000 of your fellow journalists (covering less than 4,000 delegates) its obviously a tight squeeze reminiscent of trying to squeeze into a packed subway car during peak New York City rush hourand then start taking... more
