Product Description
This classic has been throughly revised and expanded to reflect technological advances, but it still emphasizes the fundamentals, with extensive reviews of optical microscopy, video detectors, and display devices. Three completely new chapters deal with solid-state detectors, both video-rate and slow scan, image intensifiction; and the color video signal and color video cameras. Another new chapter treating the practical aspcts of the design and use of video microscope systems is especially notable. This edition fetures over 500 illustrations (including 126 half-tones), a glossary of items, detailed tables of specifications, and a list of manufacturers.

5 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT BOOK!!   November 5, 1997
5 out of 6 found this review helpful

This book is an excellent update to the first edition. Much progress has been made in Video Microscopy since the first edition in 1986. This book covers the field nicely. It is an excellent guide for the novice and excellent reference for the advanced user. Anyone serious about video microscopy should have a copy of this book on their shelf!

The author provides a very detailed and extremely well presented guide to all aspects of video microscopy. The subject is presented in such a way as to be of great value to the most advanced reader while not being beyond the grasp of the novice. All relevant background material is supplied, and I have found the book to be an excellent reference for video imaging and image processing in general.

Book was informative for basics and advanced material.
I found it difficult to read; was too much info for a basic microscopy course. I think there should be an easier to read edition that focuses more on microscopy techniques without all the advanced information.
