Leica R Compendium-Handbook of the Leica R system, NEW

NEW COPY - our last one in stock Leica R Compendium by Jonathan Eastland. "The complete guide to Leica reflex cameras for Leica enthusiasts, from the original Leicaflex to the latest Leica R models. Operation of the cameras, exposure metering, viefinding, use of motor drives, etc., are described by an author who has earned his living from Leica equipment. There is advice on visual thinking with a Leica SLR cmaera, on close-up and macro work - including the unorthodox when the right equipment is not to hand, and on telephotography with the wonderful and varied range of telephoto lenses now available for the Leica R camera. Jonathan Eastland is an award winning photographer whose work has been published in newspapers, magazines and books around the world for more than 25 years. He has written from his own personal experience of the cameras and lenses he describes, and has illustrated the book from his own extensive picture library. He is the author of the companion volume to this work, 'Leica M Compendium', as well as nine other books on marine and photographic subjects." Hove Books 1995, 186pp, hardback.
