A Japanese collector/reviewer calls it "a significant book". A long-time English collector says "the overall impression is of an excellent attempt to address quite a complex subject". American collectors who have it are calling it "impressive", "spectacular", and "a great and informative book".

The accompanying PDF files on the CD-ROM are needed to make sense of the colour coded charts and to see the difference in the cameras which in grey scale appear to be identical. The tables include a believed value of scarcity, prices seen and a best guess value.
