Good read, bad print quality November 29, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was a very informational book and I learned from it, but the photos are of horrible print quality due to a poor selection in publishing.
Exceptionally Well-Written Book! November 25, 2008 I had read a couple of other books on digital photography, although they were not specific to "exposure", but have to say that this book goes above and beyond those others (but they were good in their own rights). Bryan Peterson does an unbelievable job explaining the difference between a "correct" exposure and an "artistically correct" exposure. He gives you examples of what not to do, in addition to how to correct the problems - and doesn't just put perfect picures in the book to say "look how good I am". He breaks the different parts of exposure down so that even the beginning photographer - whether you wish to be a pro or not - can understand the different aspects of exposure. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who is having trouble understanding exposure or wants to be a better photographer. Very well done, Mr. Peterson!
Must read for any newer photographer wanting to understand exposure November 25, 2008 Great book clearly illustrating basic exposure principles. Explains clearly and illustrates with images all of the major aspects of exposure. A must read for any beginning photographer wanting to understand exposure (whether shooting film or digital--I shoot digital only), and a good brush up for intermediate photographers.
Very good book. November 24, 2008 Author explains all details in plain English with some very useful practical tools to use in field. The book helped me to understand better the "secrets" of correct exposure. There is a lot of information and I'm reading it for second time now to memorize all the tricks and setups. I would highly recommend it to all amateur photographers and even pros'.
Recommended for beginners in photography November 22, 2008 If you are clueless in photography (SLR) and wants to learn the basic, this is the first book that you need to read! Very detailed and informative. Easy to understand for the average persons. Highly recommended.
