Product Details

MICROSCOPE
The History of Microscopes in the Hamano Collection
Photographer: Minoru Akiyama

This is a collection of antique microscope photographs, taken over four years, of Mr. Hamano's antique microscope collection at Hamano Microscopes, located in Hongo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, in front of the University of Tokyo.
Published in 2012
128 pages
List Price: ¥4,500

The book features beautifully captured images of microscopes and accessories from brands such as Leitz, Zeiss, Reichert, Fuess, Nikon, and Olympus.
Photographer Minoru Akiyama, also known for his photography books of sharp tools like chisels and planes, has shed new light on microscopes as objects in this artistically valuable volume. It's a must-have for any microscope collector. Furthermore, there are no other books like this on the market, and it's unlikely any will be published for some time.

This photo collection also serves as a technical reference, offering insights into photographic techniques such as [shooting from this angle] when photographing microscopes.
It may no longer be available in bookstores.

[Humbly, I was involved in the supervision of the microscopes at the time of publication in 2012.]
