Good Books on Rangefinder Canon.

[Nokton48]

Searching around on Amazon tonight, I bought a couple of RF Canon books:

Peter Decherts "Canon Rangefinder Cameras 1933-1968"

Jacob Deschins "Canon Photography; A Working Manual of 35mm Photography With the Canon V and IVS2"

I already have Peter's excellent book on Canon RF lenses.

What others are available??

Randol Hooper wrote a series of articles on Canon rangefinder lenses for the LHSA journal a few decades back. And of course there are several Japanese books on Canon rangefinder cameras and lenses. Peter K. mentions a few in his book.

Peter's previous suggestion might be useful..

Check out Brian Long's "Canon A Celebration." I hear it is very good with photos of early cameras, ads, and history. I plan to get it soon. We Canon nuts await Peter K'.s forthcoming book on Canon bodies.

I saw a copy of Kenneth Tydings' book on Amazon, but it was $99.

And I just ordered "Canon A Celebration" from Brian DeLong......

I bought a copy of this book off Amazon a few days back. It arrived yesterday and is a fascinating read, especially the first few chapters on early Canon history. Some great old photos too.
