Customer Reviews

An excellent, but slightly dated book about (view) cameras.
Like its two companion volumes, "The Negative" and "The Print", "The Camera" is a thorough master-class in all aspects of the subject. The techniques used (and partly developed) by Ansel Adams are well worth learning for anyone who is serious about photography
These books may all be said to be slightly dated, as most photographers today e.g. don't mix their own developer from raw chemicals, but the basic techniques are still solid.

Ansel adams the camera 1985?? ed
Interesting book and very interesting to see how little has changed
Some great ideas in there and it makes you feel like this "photography thing" is at least as much art as science and probably significantly more of the former.
This particular Edition is badly produced with slanted type setting, and a weak spine. While the paper and shots look great it has the feel of a reasonably well produced university lab manual.

In terms of what I paid for it, my experience with the seller, the delivery and packaging, and the description of the text I have no complaints - however if you want a nice book for your collection - I'd look for a different edition.
