I am looking for a book with German tank photos in big size and good quality with crisp, neat detail.

I want to get an idea of how tanks look in campaign, so it does not need to be of an specific model, nor I really care about the text or accurate captions.

Peko Publishing Panzerwaffe is one of my options but I would appreciate your recommendations. Panzerwrecks series would be good as well but I want vehicles in service...

Thanks in advanced!

Panzer, by Horst Scheibert, would seem to fit the bill.
