I received this book as a Christmas gift from my wonderful daughter.Before digital cameras, I had shot film as well as taken black and white film photography classes — spent hours developing and printing photos. This book contains so so so much more information than one can ever hope to get out of taking classes. The instructors had just made mention of pushing and pulling black and white film, now it is explained in this book with details. And this book covers color films as well.This is not a read from one end to the other end book — you will want to read the beginning of the book then discover the section of the book that sparks you to experiment with a new technique. Once finished what that part of the book you will be drawn into another part and start all over again with learning a new way of using film for photography.I see this book being referred back to over the years.

This book strikes a great balance between covering almost every area of film photography (plus some bits of digital) and going just far in depth to answer the important questions. One can tell the authors have spent a lot of time thinking about what is relevant and covering all of it! Highly recommended to any film shooter, of any level.

I love photography but did not started learning until the Digital Cameras era. This book is full of information, more that what i could imagine. It inspired me to go and get an old film camera and start experimenting with Black and White. This book is so full of information that regardless of film or digital medium, it teaches you to be better. There are many books about film photography, but they are mostly dated, and this one was written for this era using current examples of what is available.Thank you.

Reading this felt like an old friend is talking to me. This handbook is technical; goes through the history of each element of photography such as the different types of film cameras, the evolution of film, the exposure latitude ect. What I love about this handbook is at no point does the author ever mention that film is superior than digital, they always try to mention both forms of photography throughout the book. I encourage purchasing this for anyone whether your a beginner or advanced, throughout some chapters the author talks about some topics of photography that you could experiment on. It definitely helped me get out of my comfort zone, I am a beginner to film photography and I was just going to stick to 35mm because that’s all I knew but now I’m looking at other types of cameras and film and I’m excited to improve!

Great books with lots of history and covers everything you will need to know to get into film photography. They do touch on color photos but a lot of the content is focused on black and white photography. Do not take this to mean that focus is not warranted. There is a lot more to black and white photography than one would assume. This book has certainly opened my eyes to all the options and types of black and white film as well as how to process it. I would say this is a must have book for any amateur film photographer or beginner.
