Analogue Photography—Reference Manual for Shooting Film

You may have found an old Konica at the thrift store or inherited a Leica, or you may be one of the many younger photographers who are being drawn to analogue for the first time, as a way to enrich and expand their practice. In either case, this book provides all the information needed to help you understand your camera and get out and start using it.
The fundamental technical sides of both cameras and photography are covered. There are, however, no tips on how to take ‘better’ photos, no sections on lines and shapes, silhouettes, texture or composition. This is purely a technical manual: once you have mastered the mechanics of photography, you will have total creative control over your camera, a tool for taking photos exactly as you want them.
Whether as a primer or a reference manual, this is the perfect book to (re)kindle your love of analogue photography.
Reviews:
“Having read it from cover to cover, I will hereby be officially recommending a copy of this book to every film photographer that I meet ... It says on the cover ‘Reference manual for shooting film,’ and it most certainly is. The layout is easily accessible and engaging, with cross references on every page, a comprehensive index, and handy charts right at the back. The contents cover everything: from information about exposure and filters, to fundamental camera function, and beyond!” — Film Shooters Collective
“A strong recommendation. It manages to explain the more complex subject matter without over complication or getting too bogged down in unnecessary detail.”— 35mmc.com
“Superb design and a bespoke typeface for a new guide to analogue photography” — Creative Boom
