The book is what I wanted and provides the information i need. It is what i expected for this type of publicvation.
Sufficient detail to keep the attention of the advanced photographer or hobbiests attention. Great discussions of fundamental photography principles and techniques.
I'm a novice photographer, and I'm finding this book extremely helpful. The writing is un-pretentious and easily understandable.
I'm not even halfway through this book yet, but I feel the need to pause and share my feelings about it. This book is fantastic for the beginner who wants to grab a better understanding for terminology and techniques of photography.
I used this book as a guide for a digital photography course I took in the Teton National Park. Text is very informative and not in the least boring.
Coverage is not very systematic or detailed. The basic principles of good photography are mentioned but not elaborated.
This is a solid, basic, but fairly detailed and up-to-date intro to various aspects of photography, that includes sensible introductions written by expert photographers, and covers a range of topics from obvious (exposure) to more exotic (using phone cameras for diaries and travelogues or putting edible versions of your pictures on a birthday cake); it includes brief 2-page interviews with luminaries that explain a particular photo or similar 2-page " portfolio" spreads that showcase their work. I wish it had more info about each of the numerous photos included, especially regarding camera, exposure info and lens info (a few examples have it, most don't).
The book is good but not as good as previous editions. It lacks the chapters for photographic techniques that the last field guide had.
A great guide to using a variety of cameras in a wide range of environments.
