I'm sure the photos taken by it are amazing. I am buying my first SLR: Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi So I can learn the basics. Have you kept in touch with any of the subjects from the Tibetan Portrait. All of the children must be adults now. I'm sure you left an impression on them. The Canon Mark III 1DS is a bulky camera.

I truly appreciate it. I used a Hasselblad for the image in Tibetan Portrait. Today I occasionally will use the Hasselblad but I shoot mostly with a Canon Mark III 1DS with 24mm and 35mm lenses.

Working in that exhibit proved to be a life changing experience for me. I have a few questions for you: What kind of camera did you use for the Tibetan Portrait photographs? (I remember the story about the sticky film and chinese guards so I am guessing that it was a film camera and not a digital camera)? What do you prefer using now? Thank you. Mr. Borges,
