Very Important when taking pictures November 24, 2009
Bryan A. Melton (Dawsonville, Georgia USA)
Exposure is very important to the outcome of opening and closing a shutter. This book brings out all the important things you need to think about before recording a picture on a digital sensor or film. Bryan Peterson has been all over the world recording pictures and shows you how you can improve your pictures by understanding the importance of the hole (aperture) in the front of the lens. Depth of field is one thing I learned over 30+ years ago when I started out with my first SLR. It can make or break a picture. Read this book and you to will learn the importance of depth of field along with a lot of other useful information.
Loved this book November 18, 2009
Spodeworld
I found this to be quite an inspiring book. Not only does the author relay to the novice how best to approach exposure, which resides at the heart of hearts of photography, but he does so in a conversational, highly engaging style. You not only get so much from the book, but you also don't tire of reading it. Very, very well done.
This book is amazing! November 16, 2009
Tara C. Gerber (O'Fallon, IL United States)
My girlfriend is a novice freelance photographer. She loves the book, considers it her photography bible. She says she loves the way he breaks everything down and makes the content easy to understand. Pictures are great. Excellent learning tool.
Excellent book for the new DSLR owner November 15, 2009
A. Baggett (Mississippi)
This may be the best book there is explaining how to capture great images with your DSLR using the manual settings. Included in the different sections of the book are multiple photos of the same subject, with the camera settings tweaked in different ways so the reader can see first hand what can be accomplished.
