My work focuses on Latin American conflict as it relates to the drug war, forced displacement, and urban dispossession.

In the 1990’s the major Japanese camera manufacturers had long since been concentrating their efforts on making SLR cameras and smart auto-focus compacts and had no intention to go back to making manual focus rangefinder cameras.
