Awesome book

hapi333 from Mountain View, CA, Jul 24, 2009

This book is awesome!!!I am a beginning photographer my camera is a Canon Rebel xsi, and I was really confused about depth of field, exposure, shutter speed, apature etc. It can be a bit confusing.This book breaks it down, and even give you exercises to do, photos explaining what is happening. It is definately a big help. I'm beginning to understand what these things mean. Now I know what the difference between an f/4 and f/22 is. I'm even beginning to understand how to shoot in manual mode. If I want to freeze a motion, or make it look as if the subject is going at warp speed, I can do this now too. Any book by Bryan Peterson I will purchase. I now have 2 It was a great price, and arrived quickly.I definately recommend this from beginner to pro.Thanks Overstock!

A must read for all photographers!

youniquephoto from Des Moines, Iowa, Apr 11, 2008

This book took the mystery out of exposure for me. I am no longer afraid of my manual settings! This is probably the single most valuable book I own!
