3.0 out of 5 stars
Good broad-based reference,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Photographer's Handbook (Third Edition, Revised) (Paperback)
This book is good for those looking for a wide surface treatment of the whole spectrum of photography. Points of disucssion are almost always clearly illustrated with photographs or high-quality drawings, and many specific examples of equipment are given. This book will inspire you to try many different photographic techniques. However, all those nifty photos and pages devoted to escoterica don't leave much room for the basics, and so this book can't be reccomended as a decent manual or textbook for raw beginners trying to improve their photography.

Worth its wieght in gold.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Photographer's Handbook (Third Edition, Revised) (Paperback)
An excellent and comprehensive text introduceing many, many facets of photography. An excellent general guide, I highly reccomend it to anyone wanting a reference text- I have learned so much from this book. My only criticism is that I would like to see it updated, it was put out in '92, since then alot of new technology worth covering has come out.

Must have,
By Patrick Morrison (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Photographer's Handbook (Third Edition, Revised) (Paperback)
I agree, its a must have for beginners on up. I got when i first started and still use it today, if i need a lighting reference or film reference. Its tremendously handy and thorough.Compared to most college-level photography texts, its also a great deal.
