The Leica M system has been with us since 1954. It rapidly became, and has remained the favorite instrument of photographers, especially photojournalists, who, like Henri Cartier-Bresson, seek to ""catch life in the act"", to record ""the decisive moment"". In this Leica M Compendium Jonathan Eastland describes the whole Leica M system from his experience as a professional photographer. He explains how to use, enjoy and get the best out of the cameras and lenses, regardless of age. The latest lenses can be used on the earliest cameras, and vice-versa, and the Visoflex, although no longer made,

Photographer’s Guide to the Leica D-Lux 4 is the first guidebook that explains the features and capabilities of Leica’s widely acclaimed compact digital camera. Written in plain Engli

The Leica lecture tours, started by Anton Baumann, soon became Benser’s specialty with which he achieved world-wide recognition. He took his shows not only around Germany but also into neighboring countries even after he war had begun. As a result of his photographic activity he eventually became a war reporter. Then came the battle for survival, both during and a

The object of this book is to demonstrate to the reader how recent developments have so greatly simplified the enlarging and printing process – particularly in color, which was once the preserve of only the most dedicated amateur. Modern cameras, particularly the 35mm SLR which is now so widely used, have made the taking of the original snapshot simple and reliable. The cameras themselves are capable of producing results of a quality that their owners seldom realize when they rely on mass commercial processing and printing. This book is ideal for the expert and amateur.
