Gene Nocon has died.

Gene Nocon died on 20th November 2011. He was our hero for his invention of the f-stop method of exposure in darkroom printing. There is a very interesting 30 minute video of him talking about how he developed this idea and his work with Cecil Beaton, Norman Parkinson and Tim Rudman. It is a good history of the late 20th century photography. Well worth viewing.
