The Leica and Leicaflex way

The Leica Way covers the technique and art of Leica and Leicaflex photography more completely and at the same time in greater detail than any other single volume. It gives an up-to-date survey of the very latest Leica equipment without losing sight of any of the older models or accessories; their use and handling is shown step by step. The whole of the work is presented from a uniform viewpoint by a single expert author whose statements have been carefully counter-checked by several eminent Leica specialists both in this country and overseas. The author's approach is that of the practical photographer. He very methodically presents a vast amount of information, keeping every phase of a voluminous subject in proper proportion to its relative importance. His plain English and common-sense arguments aim at the greatest possible accuracy and easy reading alike. In fact The Leica Way sets out to replace a whole Leica library. It is the book on the Leica and Leicaflex any novice can turn to straight away and no expert will want to be without. The fact that this is the seventh edition illustrates this point. Contents include: System of Equipment; Handling the Leica; Leica M Controls; Older Leicas; Loading and Unloading; Leica Lenses; Scope of Lenses; Leica Viewfinders; LeicaFlex Operation; Leicaflex Lenses; Films for the Leica; Exposure Technique; Filter Technique; Lighting Technique; Flash Technique; Colour Technique; Leica Pictorialism; Leica at Full Pace; Close-Up Equipment; True to Nature; Telephotography; Photomicrography; Stereo Photography; Invisible Radiation; High-Speed Action; Facts and Figures.
