Rise of Telephoto

Summary

Rise of Telephoto explores the captivating story of telephoto lenses and their profound impact on photography, from photojournalism to wildlife photography. This book dives into how these lenses, which magnify distant subjects, revolutionized image capture and visual communication. Early photography faced limitations with long exposure times, making the development of telephoto technology a significant leap forward. The book investigates the evolution of these lenses, their optical principles, and their ethical implications in fields like surveillance.

 
The book progresses chronologically, starting with the basic optics that enable telephoto lenses to overcome limitations of standard lenses. It then moves through the historical development, highlighting their role in capturing pivotal moments in photojournalism and allowing wildlife photographers to document animals unobtrusively. A key argument is that telephoto lenses have transformed how we document the world, but with this power comes responsibility. It uniquely combines technical explanations with historical narratives, making it valuable to anyone interested in photography and technology.

Demystifying IT - The Language...

Bhopi Dhall, Saurajit Kanungo

Information technology isn’t magic. But used strategically, in its many forms, it can literally be a “superpower” that fuels a company into new realms of growth and profit. Most midsized companies today are leaving much of their IT potential on the table. Authors Bhopi Dhali and Saurajit Kanungo — experts in both business and digital tech — have distilled their years of hands-on experience into a guidebook for tapping the potential. Drawing on examples from Spider-Man (really!) to case stories of companies they’ve helped to succeed, they peel away the bewilderment and frustration that executives often encounter in dealing with IT. Beneath those layers, key management principles emerge. These principles can make digitization projects pay bottom-line returns instead of draining the budget. And can make any company fit to lead, not fated to lose, in today’s digital age.
