Hello
I'm looking for a small notebook to jot down info about my images: F/stop, Aperture, exposure compensatiion choices, and general notes about each image.
Is there a company that makes a specific notebook for photographers?
I want a notebook that has a specific layout and spaces for my entries; a notebook that already has things like: F/stop, aperture, etc... Marked on the pages.
Thanks

In archaeology, it's critical to keep track of images with a written record of such information. We always printed up our own forms in the order and with the information we wanted. I don't have an example handy to show, but it was just rows and columns.
Of course, these were on normal typing paper size and punched for loose leaf notebooks, but you could print (+Xerox, whatever at your local 'qwikprint') off your own, assemble them into a folded page booklet. staple, and you've got just what YOU want. Try using a form for a little while before settling on a final format and reproducing it in volume.

HP's link is very interesting. This is perhaps not of much use to you but in the past I had used a very small diary which kept a pencil in the spine.

Like this? I think you will need a time machine to get one.

Here's the contents, apparently from two holiday in Cornwall, from 1981/2, on one roll of film:

I use a Reporter's Notebook, made by Tops under catalog number 8030 (and perhaps others).
It looks just like a stenographer's notebook, but only half as wide.
Shooting jackets have an inside pocket to carry it, protected from the weather.
You can get them from Amazon.

Someone could upload a template to one of those online publishing companies (e.g. the ones that do soft/hard-cover, single-color print for cheap)...

The nearest I came to that system was when I put notes on the top of the sheet or on the cardboard cover of negative sheets. I would list the film, EI , the developer, dilution, time and temperature, place, month and year. If I was doing some kind of experimenting I would list the camera. Now that digital cameras keep track of a lot of information, no one seems interested in it any more.

If you want to hack a notebook of your own, I would use a Filofax Personal binder, and print out forms from this site: http://philofaxy.blogspot.com/p/files.html and find Photography Exposure Record (Note: Last time I looked this was a free site, and I have no connection with this site) Maybe this is something for you as well?
