Customer Reviews
Excellent for beginners
This book is great. It thoroughly explains all the "fancy" photography terms that I never understood and even explains when to adjust certain things for different conditions. It shows plenty of sample photos and the settings used when each photo was taken, which makes it excellent for understanding what different combinations of aperture, shutter speed, and ISO have on photos. It is clearly explained and thorough and technical enough to be a great purchase for the beginner and the advanced photographer. I'm a beginner and feel much more confident in my understanding of what a camera does and how it works. This book is well worth the money!
Great book
This is the best book for new amateur photographers and those semi-pros looking to brush-up on the fundamentals!
