SO-SCH-2012-9780764340260-X4 From Daguerre to Digital: 150 Years of Classic Cameras by John Wade ISBN: 9780764340260 Book Title: From Daguerre to Digital: 150 Years of Classic Cameras Author: John Wade Binding: Hard Cover with dust jacket Copyright: 2012 Pages: 304 Size: 9 x 12 in. Over 500 crisp color photos display the wide range of cameras produced from the earliest days of photography to the rise of the digital age. The informative text provides a history of cameras, organized into chapters by various camera types, including snapshot, folding, rangefinder, single lens reflex, twin lens reflex, stereo, panoramic, miniature, and spy cameras. Cameras within each chapter are arranged chronologically to show the development of the camera type. Every camera presented has earned its place by meeting one or more of these criteria: it is a major landmark; epitomizes a certain era; is rare or a prototype; contains something different or unusual in the design; and/or is especially weird or strange. Rounding out this engrossing guide are a glossary of technical terms and an index. This book will be enjoyed by camera collectors, photo historians, and all who have ever captured life on film or in pixels. 522 color photos (Description generated 2025-02-07) 43acc792e663295de1f86218e18c160d
