Good coverage of the basics of outdoor photography
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
The "Bible" is a good entry-level selection for the serious amateur. After shooting for over a year, I found several helpful "a-ha's" throughout the book. There are plenty of tables and numerous photos to illustrate the authors' explanations/techniques. It's a very easy-to-understand book and was quite helpful for someone who's just beginning to understand the basics of lighting & metering, composition, film selection, filters, etc. Another nice feature is that the book applies to those who are shooting on automatic or manual systems--i.e., it did not discriminate based on your skill level or the type of equipment you own. I'm glad to have this book in my collection.
Good Value

This book covers it primary subject (outdoor photography) pretty well. The thing I liked best (and what motivated me to write this) was the numerous tables and diagrams, especially related to basics like depth of field. For the very small investment, I'd rate this book as a very good investment for any serious ammeter.
