I missed this as I normally check his blog rather than his photography channel which is where this short message is posted.

I'm not often moved by bloggers and the like. But...

Extremely sad....

That is very sad

I loved his vids when I shot M43, he was the go to for impressions on the gear. Always found his voice very soothing. You can hear it in this short clip that his voice is going though, sounded painful for him to even do that much

Thanks for posting this as I didn't know.

I liked his reviews, he always seemed calm and considered but also sharp as demonstrated now and again for example that extremely cutting critique of Brooklyn Beckhams book...

I'll certainly miss his reviews, blogs and comments.

RIP.

But... What a life he had!

Cheers David!
