Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: It covers the basics Comment: After reading this book one can most definitely move from a simple point-and-shoot perspective on taking pictures to a more deliberate choice in the process. You'll definitely want a camera that will give you some control after this. Customer Rating: Summary: Great book with Great shots!! Comment: I photograf for a while but in this book I found everything I needed for good shot. Customer Rating: Summary: Inspiration in print! Comment: Wow! I have a new Sony digital SLR reflex camera (after having about 4 regular 35 mm slr cameras still sitting around). This book was recommended by someone when I was researching on Amazon for cameras. It is so worth it! Beautiful photos, great easy to understand instructions for over-riding the auto features and getting creative with your photography, suggestions for "exercises" to practice what he is teaching....I just need more time to play with what I am learning. Very motivating! Customer Rating: Summary: A Must Have For New Photographers! Comment: This book will teach you what you need to know, and fast. Great explanations of everything! Customer Rating: Summary: Worth every penny Comment: I liked this book a lot. It has a very systematic explanation of the range of creative exposures from story telling shots, to isolated subject, to freezing motion, and blurring motion. It really covers the basics. The big learning for me is that before I take a shot now, I think which creative exposure do I want to create. And the second thing I learned how to increase my chances of getting a correct exposure. I have read similar information elsewhere but it's the step by step that makes it really useful. More Reviews
