WOWSERS! If you are into photography as much as was in my younger days, and still am, you will find these camera references a must have for your personal files. My Dad tought me how to develop film, make contact prints and enlarge pics, and I think my first reflex was a Praktica, followed by many others -- and I almost had my paws on a kewl Bolex cine camera when studying in Spain! I still have a Rollei and a Pentax, but since the advent of the digital Kodak DC50, I haven't used a film camera since! The Nikon CoolPix is my main camera now, with a Kodak DC 3400 as an adjunct. And a couple flash cards and a card reader sure beat stashing rolls of film in the refrigerator! How kewl it would be to scan a lot of these images, use some standard software to make your own personal computer interactive relational database and burn a CD or DVD with as many photos of the makes and models and accompanying data which can be found in these and other sources! The history of photography is a remarkably fascinating hobby to spend some quality time with. This extremely well illustrated reference is a MUST HAVE for that class project, for the resource library of a camera collector / shop owner / appraiser / museum curator / student or teacher researching the subject, the makers their models and their signatures -- flee marketeer / yard sale hound / country / estate auction goer -- these cameras may still be found at any of those venues and you will then know exactly what you are looking at Condition Classes [Cosmetic/Mechanical/Lenses]. Lavishly illustrated ! European Antiquarian Book in EXCELLENT+ Condition!! |
