5.0 out of 5 stars
Great underwater photography handbook, October 28, 2000
This review is from: Essentials of Underwater Photography (Hardcover)
Great reference book on essentials of underwater photography. Compact enough to take with you on your next photo dive in far away places. I especially enjoyed the quick look-up charts on filters, f-stop, strobes and films. Great for beginners, and for those of us that may need a refresher before going for a photo dive after a few years absence.
There is a great discussion on equiptment that is a must read before buying new underwater photographic gear. Beyond being a great reference, Mr. Jackson has supplied us with some wonderful photos (with settings). This is a great gift for the underwater enthusiast as well as yourself.

2.0 out of 5 stars
A lot to read but not as much to see, June 27, 2005
This review is from: Essentials of Underwater Photography (Hardcover)
Photography improves as you see more pictures and read the different techniques behind them. Unfortunately the photos in this book (only 40 of them) are not the ones I would like to shoot or appreciate if I see in a magazine or in a competition. If the printing quality of the photos were better this could have been a better book.
