4.0 out of 5 stars Wanna Buy the Right Book? Search no More!, April 8, 2000
This review is from: How to Take Good Pictures, Revised Edition (Paperback)
No wonder this is a best seller! It is a wonderful book for those who want to get started in the art of photography. Fully illustrated, it offers the reader a precise theory/practice approach, covering all major themes, such as lighting, flash, film, etc. And the pictures are a source of inspiration for the photographer in each one of us. Definetely a must-have book for those who enjoy photography!

This review is from: How to Take Good Pictures, Revised Edition (Paperback)
With this book I am able to see what each feature of a camera can do before I try it on film. The COLOR photo examples are great! I recommend this book for any beginner or prosumer. I love photography and this book got me started.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is a VERY easy read!, May 29, 2005
This review is from: How to Take Good Pictures, Revised Edition (Paperback)
I have a very old copy of this book...dated 1982...and it's been a super guide in helping me to understand photography. The examples and all the photos make it easy to follow and even though I am digital, I am able to incorporate the information.
I think this book is a wonderful resource for anyone who wants to learn and understand photography basics...from lighting...to composition...it explains it all.
I think it's a very good 'first' photography book.
