great book!:
This is a great book. Covers how to put together a perfect exposure very well. Are you tired of always struggling becuase there just wasn't enough light in that shot? You just had a bit too much blur then you wanted? You just don't understand how shutter speed, film speed and aperature work together and which one should be modified for this particular shot? Then read this book and have fun shooting in manual mode from now on and stop hoping that auto mode will get the picture right. :)
Good read, bad print quality:
This was a very informational book and I learned from it, but the photos are of horrible print quality due to a poor selection in publishing.
Exceptionally Well-Written Book!:
I had read a couple of other books on digital photography, although they were not specific to "exposure", but have to say that this book goes above and beyond those others (but they were good in their own rights). Bryan Peterson does an unbelievable job explaining the difference between a "correct" exposure and an "artistically correct" exposure. He gives you examples of what not to do, in addition to how to correct the problems - and doesn't just put perfect picures in the book to say "look how good I am".... more info
Must read for any newer photographer wanting to understand exposure:
Great book clearly illustrating basic exposure principles. Explains clearly and illustrates with images all of the major aspects of exposure. A must read for any beginning photographer wanting to understand exposure (whether shooting film or digital--I shoot digital only), and a good brush up for intermediate photographers.
