5.0 out of 5 stars
An amateur's understanding expanded,
This review is from: The Film Book: Choosing and Using Color and Black and White Film (Paperback)
Having bought a second hand SLR last year and shooting nearly 70 films in 8 months in a crazed passion for photography, I decided it was time to understand some of the intricacies of various photography techniques and jargon.This book is a good choice for amateurs wanting to understand the relationship between the right kind of film for the right kind of output. Rogers and Frances use a lot of examples from their photography work and illustrate with their experience what worked or didn't work well for them, what were the thoughts in the mind when they chose a particular kind of film for a particular mood and setting. The book covers a broad array of discussion on 35mm negatives, slides, etc. and gives a lot of helpful tips and tricks for working with different kinds of film (both colour and black & white). I am a total beginner and it has helped me critique my own work in an extremely constructive way. there could be no better recommendation for any book!
