Excerpt from Picture Taking and Picture Making This little volume will not tell everything about photography. It will trouble the reader with few technicalities and no theories. In it we shall simply endeavor to start the amateur in the right direction. His own ambitions, tastes and energies will guide him afterwards. Frankly, we shall recommend our own goods in the chapters on apparatus, etc., which are to follow. Years of experience have given us ideas as to how a camera should be made so that it will be best adapted to the amateur's use. In these pages we give to you the results of that experience; in our work shop we build Kodaks in accordance with the ideas this experience has given us. This book and our manufactures are, therefore, in perfect harmony. We do not, however, confine ourselves to goods of our own make, full directions, for instance, being given for working the Platinum, Carbon, Gum Bi-chromate and plain paper processes, none of which use our goods. The other directions for the use of standard goods apply to those of other manufacturers as well as our own. Some of the instructions herein given will already have been read in our manuals by the Kodak owners, yet it is necessary to repeat them for the benefit of those who have not yet made a photographic start, but at the same time the book will contain much information not to be obtained from a mere manual.
