Summary

• Modern PhotoMICROgraphy provides an up-to-date introduction to the theory and practice of producing high quality photomicrographs. The book offers practical guidance on obtaining a clear image and recording this accurately, with details on: current imaging methods, choice of films and film speeds, recording the image in monochrome and colour, calibration of equipment, and preparing the results for publication.
• Modern PhotoMICROgraphy is essential reading for all practising microscopists who wish to record images at magnifications greater than 50x. The companion volume to this text, Scientific PhotoMACROgraphy, is a practical guide to the photography of specimens with a magnification range of 1-50x. The two books should be read in conjunction to provide a complete overview of methods for photographing magnified images.
