Technology Changes, Photography Doesnt
21 April, 2008
there are two negative reviews for this book. two negative reviews from reviewers who havent a clue about photography. the concepts covered in this book are just as beneficial to the photographer now as they were to the daguerotype user. technology doesnt change the fact that a large F stop narrows your depth of field, that a longer focal length narrrows your field of view, that filters effect the outcome, how flash works, etc.
if you are a beginner, amateur, advanced amateur, or professional, you will find this book very helpful and informative. it covers the vast majority of technique the average photographer will ever use.

Great Title For A Mediocre Book
19 January, 2008
This book was written at the second half of the 80's when autofocus was pretty new in the market, but it contains some useful advices, mainly if you are a very beginner.
Unfortunately I had discovered all books from Kodak have almost exactly the same contents - just some changes in the text, some different pictures, and, oh yes - a different title!
If you read any book from Kodak, or have some experience in Photography, forget this book.

A Classic Must Have!
19 February, 2008
I know this was written in the 1970s, but the application of this book is still current with today's photography industry. Most pros have this book in their library, including me. The Joy of Photography is a remarkable book with great information to use and practice. I recommend this to anyone interested in photography at any level with any type of photography equipment.

Outdated
19 July, 2007
This book may be fine if you are using film, but it came out in 1991. Things have changed since then, especially technology. Nothing referencing digital. If digital is your thing, find another book.
