Photography: The Underdog: Reconsidering Pentax (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781329619807)

Shawn M. Tomlinson, with the help of fellow photographer Gary W. Ziroli, reconsiders the camera brand that got him started long before digital single-lens reflex cameras existed. In this 12th volume of Shawn M. Tomlinson's Guide to Photography, the author outlines the history of the camera maker, its film and digital cameras, and explains why Pentax is a viable choice for the serious amateur, enthusiast, semi-pro and professional photographer. From the book: "I was a Pentax Loyalist for years, then a Pentax Apologist, then I rather switched that fight it anymore, then I began to re-appreciate Pentax. ... The point was/is that I write these guide books to help the less-than-wealthy budding photographer get the best equipment possible for the lowest prices possible. ... I write this stuff because I know what it's like to yearn for the newest, shiniest cameras and lenses, yet at the same time know that I cannot possibly afford them. I know there are a lot of other people out there who have the same problem."
