4.0 out of 5 stars lots of useful information for those getting into microscopy, July 27, 2004

This review is from: Photography with a Microscope (Hardcover)
I spent a couple hours looking through this book while sitting in a bookstore, to determine if I should buy the book. I decided not to buy it because I had already learned most everything in it over the past several years of my own searches for information dealing with microscopy and photomicrography. So, if you are just getting into photomicrography, or need a good single reference book on the subject I would recommend it. I wouldn't say that I found anything really new in this book (except for an interesting epi-Rheinberg illumination image), but I was amazed at how much information was packed into it.

The book does cover a lot on film photography, in case you have any questions on that subject. The book is extemely easy to read and understand. A good deal of the equipement shown or mentioned is older, and can be found on the used markets at affordable prices (compared to new equipment). I didn't find a lot of pretty pictures (the ones in the book are very informative) in this book, but it's not intended to sit on your coffee table. I imagine its main use would be as a reference at your microscope bench (doesn't everyone have one of these?)
