Exposure Handbook

I do like this book. Previously I had Understanding Exposure by Bryan Peterson and had wanted to expand more, that's the reason why I bought and keep this book. If I could quote from Mr. Weston, photography is an art made from 2 disciplines, visual design and light management (color and exposure), and this book explained the latter part so well. However, I recommend this book to intermediate level of photographers, which has already familiar with things like aperture, shutter speed, film/sensor sensitivity, and has already been able to use or understand, manual control of their camera. It has made me understand why to use exposure compensation, flash compensation, middle gray metering, and color temperature. It also covers a bit of zone system from Ansel Adams, just to touch the issue that film/sensor has limited dynamic range/contrast. It also has enough good pictures to assist us to understand what Mr. Weston want to tell. Mr. Weston also gave us several tips on how to get correct exposure in several tricky situations. I like this book, because this book has a lot of useful resource in a compact, thin book, which I can use to remind myself and to discipline myself to get more correct exposure everytime I use my camera.
