Some apology is needed for giving to this little treatise a title which its contents do not strictly bear out. The explanation is that the book has been reviewed in a semi-official manner under the title " A Treatise on the use of the Hand Camera," and condemned as being too technical for general reading; and in possessing a title that might be misleading in this respect. There is much truth in this verdict ; and it is hoped that the alteration of title, by erring in an opposite and safer direction, will prevent any misapprehension and disappointment that might have been caused by publishing the book and placing it in a catalogue under its original name.
