• Wonderful! Clear And Concise!!
26 January, 2002
After a nice camera if you have any money to spend on photography - this is it! With more than a dozen pros guiding you on most vital of things in photography what else can you ask for!!!It makes a very easy read, even fine things are explained in very simple way, with excellent pix as examples. Best thing is that experts talk abt all the things like lens basics, depth of feild, metering, filters, B&W pix, fashion photography and even abt business side of photography.After going thru various topices of this book quality of my pix has improved many-folds. If you go thru a topic and try it on the field, results would be IMMED!! I have a digital camera and before reading this book I always relied on the camera and operated it in all auto mode! Not anymore, now I'm deciding everything abt the picture. Feels great.Great compilation, worth its price. A MUST.Cheers

• Great For Beginners And Seasoned Amateurs
01 December, 1999
This book is the book you want to read for the best handling of all topics relating to photography. Here I found great descriptions of terminology that I have puzzled about for months, but could not get answers to. This book will improve your photography whether you are just starting or have been shooting for years.

• Great Balance!
03 February, 2001
I found this book to be a great balance between technical and visual content! If you're tired of "point the camera at the subject" primers and bored with "see how good my pictures are" albums, this one might be for you.It covers the basics thoroughly, but goes beyond the basics. Did you know one brand of slide film gets better saturation in red-yellow while another gets better saturation in green-blue?The pictures are fascinating, and the aurthor explains the specific applications of basic principles that went into them!

• An Inspiring Work
30 March, 2001
This book will inspire you to THINK as you look through the viewfinder. All too often, books in this category spend far too much time on the basics and go no further than that. This book not only covers most of the basics, it prods you to do more than just get the exposure right or the focus sharp. Chapters are titled "Film" or "Exposure" to let you know they cover basic topics, and then chapters like "Composition" or "Outdoor Photography" challenge you to do more with the camera.The drawbacks? The book has a couple. If you're not into B&W photography or slide film several of the books sections and photographs will leave you cold. The other main "distraction" is also a benefit; it's written by multiple authors with multiple (and sometimes conflicting) points of view. Be prepared to read a "do this" suggestion on one page and then five pages later read a "don't do this" suggestion for the same thing!All in all, a worthy addition to your bookshelf.
