Let us drop it. The shots made by Gregory with
his Rolleiflex were not "official" photographs
and the Everest Committee has never claimed
ownership over them, as they have claimed for the
"official" photographs taken on the Contax
II's. The Everest Committee's claim to ownership
of Sir Edmund's high pictures is problematic but
he never fought that though Shipton argued that he ought to have done so.
Again, we have flogged this dead horse
sufficiently. You seem to feel that Gregory's
Rolleiflex shots were "official" despite the
attitude of the Everest Committee that they were not. So be it.
What can you teach us of Capra's use of his
Automat on the approach to Juno Beach on D-Day?
