Joe Rosenthal, who took the famous picture of the (second) flag
raising at Iwo Jema died yesterday near San Francisco.

I have no idea what kind of camera he used then, but his picture is a
good example of photos that influence all of us for a long time.
I did what I could with the photo in the article, but can't tell
whether there is a camera there, however with a little imagination
one can make out the front of a Rollei Lens Hood. Maybe a bit early
for Rollei's but I'm sure someone in the group will know.
