john mayer = leica nut

Thanks for sharing...that was pretty cool. I wish his Leica passion would rub off on Steve Jobs so Leica can get some funding...hehehe...😉
 
I used to work at a big NYC photo "superstore", and John M. would come in sometimes and hang out and talk photo-geek shop for a while. So would Brendan Fraiser, another Leica nut. Fraiser actually had a show at the Leica Gallery a couple of years ago.

Oh, can you imagine that? Apple and Leica. Best of all worlds. That could change everything for the better.
 
Also Elijah Wood, who played Frodo in the LOTR trilogy shoots Leicas. There was a fairly extensive write up on him and his photographic habit (what a thing for a hobbit!) in Life Magazine (the newer, fluffier version that comes with the Chicago Tribune on Fridays).

As for Mr. Mayer... I guess I'll take a peek at the blog.

Thanks for posting it! 🙂
 
Same with Johnny Depp, I think. Or was it Sean Penn?

Bottom line is that anyone who reads, has money, and likes photography will eventually learn of the supremacy of Leica. It is a force of nature.
 
Good stuff ... I generally don't listen to Mayer

but I have seen him appear at a Blues festival and appreciate his guitar skills

... now I appreciate his photographic skills (he has an eye)

maybe I'll look into one of his albums

Actually, I would just settle for RAW support for my D-lux 2 in Apple's Aperture :bang: .

The blog was a good read and I enjoyed the pics. My son is a big fan of his music.
