AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Erwin Puts – Leica Compendium: The Company, the Cameras, the Lenses
Expanded second edition, 2011
A comprehensive reference work covering the development of Leica, its cameras and its lenses from 1849 to 2011.
In this substantial volume, respected Leica authority Erwin Puts examines the company from technical, historical and cultural perspectives. His detailed and analytical approach makes this one of the most extensive publications devoted to the Leica system.
An important part of the book is Puts’ comprehensive study of Leica lenses, beginning with the Anastigmat/Elmax of 1925 and continuing through to the Super-Elmar-M introduced in 2011. Leica lenses produced during this period are described, analysed and evaluated, with schematic diagrams illustrating their optical construction.
Puts also discusses the principles and challenges of optical design, providing the technical background needed to understand the performance and characteristics of individual Leica lenses.
With approximately 1,000 colour illustrations across 610 pages, this large-format book is both an important research source and an attractive addition to a Leica collection. It is particularly suitable for collectors, photographers and readers interested in Leica’s cameras, lenses and industrial history.
