The 50mm lens is for photography purists. It's cheap to buy, light to carry and gets amazing results. It also makes even the greatest photographers try just that little bit harder to frame the perfect image. As a result, it's the first thing anyone buys after their camera.

Life in 50mm shares the greatest photos - and the personal experiences that led to them - from some of today's leading photographers. It also explains why they chose to reject complicated modern zooms and express themselves through the 50mm prime in the first place. Examining a stunning collection of work ranging from Cartier-Bresson and Capa to today's leading contemporary photographers, with in-depth descriptions of what went into each shot, Life in 50mm will help you reinvigorate your photography and embrace
the huge potential of the most famous focal length in photography. 

Fashion portraits or travel landscapes, natural still lifes or documentary action-you'll
learn how to capture an incredible variety of subjects. But be warned, you may never want to buy another lens again!

This book has been remainder marked by the publisher - a marker pen dot on one outer edge - see final image.
