A Concise Gem!!!,
By
This review is from: The Photography Bible (Paperback)
I love this book, for each time I open it at any page (really ANY page) I end up learning something in spite of its concise nature; a major quality! And that is also its weakest point, as far as I am concerned : it is a bit short on lenght, or should I say depth in the very intimate sense that Bryan Peterson has gotten us used to since its strong debut with Understanding Exposure. I like reading stories explaining ways by which a given professional photographer tackles various challenges regarding aperture / shutter speed / composition choices, but here one never feels that sort of close relationship with the writer. On the other hand, as a reference book or field guide, the book as a whole is amazingly dense as everything remains clearly explained with great simple tips, informative tabs, catchy graphics, and beautiful sample shots about several relevant topics in each chapter (CAMERAS IN THE 21ST CENTURY, HOW CAMERAS WORK, IMAGE CAPTURE, SYSTEM ACCESSORIES, IMAGE MANIPULATION, BASIS TECHNIQUES, EQUIPMENT TECHNIQUES, SUBJECT TECHNIQUES, AFTER THE PHOTO, HISTORIC MOMENTS IN PHOTOGRAPHY, GLOSSARY)!
