The Photographische Rundschau , which from 1891 to 1893 had the subtitle Centralblatt für Amateur-Photographie , 1894–? was subtitled magazine for friends of photography , was founded as an association organ of the club of amateur photographers in Vienna . This association recruited its members for the most part from photographers and / or the owners of photographic studios. In regular meetings, the state of the art and the development of image design were reported. In the period that followed, numerous, mainly German, associations chose the Photographische Rundschau to publish meeting reports, lists of members and the like.

The Photographische Rundschau turned to photographers and the staff of photographic studios. The descriptions of technical details for the improvement of the recording techniques and the chemical processes of the development of negative and / or positive images took up a lot of space. The latest status was published on the development of printing processes. Regular rubrics are devoted to a. of the newly published literature. There was a "question box" that was used to exchange know-how. Important components were the announcements of national and international exhibitions and the associated invitations to participate and / or submit work / photographs. There were reports on national and international exhibitions as well as on the awarding of numerous prizes and awards. The magazine was published monthly. Nowadays the editions of that time usually exist as bound annual editions.

In 1893 the Berlin doctor Richard Neuhaus became co-editor and Srna stopped his activities.
