MANNHEIM, L.A. The Retina Reflex Way. The Retina Reflex Photographer's Companion. London Focal Press 1960 Hard Cover Very Good in Good dust jacket 360 pages, very well illustrated (some in color), diagrams, tables, cloth, dj, very good. From the publisher: Almost out of the blue there appeared a few years ago a new camera type: the seeing miniature. Technically, it was a single-lens reflex - its principle goes back two generations. Functionally, it brought a new approach to photography; seeing pictures in full size and at eye-level to show the exact field of view, arrangement, and sharpness. The eye-level reflex combines the advantages of a rangefinder camera with the precision and versatility of the ground glass screen. The Retina Reflex was one of the earliest cameras of its kind - yet it is produced by a firm with a long tradition in making precision miniatures. Not surprisingly, the Retina Reflex therefore takes over many well-tried and well-established features of design from the Retina range of cameras. This is also one of the first books devoted exclusively to the Retina Reflex. In it the author shows how to see with this seeing camera. . . The Retina Reflex Way analyses and describes each model in detail - its control, operations, and special features. . . For fifteen years L.A. Mannheim has worked with reflex cameras and with miniatures of various types and sizes. He has handled nearly every model on the market, reviewed a great many of them and written full-size books on selected ones. The best known of these is probably The Rolei Way in which he pointed to the immense popular scope of the ground-glass screen picture Price:
