The Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) camera is a
revolutionary way to capture images and create art.
This book picks up where your camera manual leaves
off, teaching you to make pictures that truly show the
beauty of the world around you.
In this book, Tony Northrup teaches you both the art
and science to create stunning pictures. You will learn
how shutter speed, aperture, ISO, and flash impact
your photos. You will also learn how to compose
pictures, understand the qualities of natural and
artificial light, and how to best add flash. More than
350 original pictures show the results of both good and
bad technique, and you can complete the practices at
the end of every chapter to get the hands-on
experience that you need.
Beyond the fundamentals, Tony dedicates entire
chapters to portraits (including natural light, flash, and
studio environments), weddings, animals and nature,
landscapes and cityscapes, night and light painting,
High Dynamic Range (HDR), macro/close-up, and
underwater photography. When pictures dont turn
out the way you hoped, you can refer to Chapter 5 for
tips on solving common problems.
Because digital photography is a fast-moving field,
Tony invented a brand new publishing process to keep
this book up-to-date (as of February 2013). While
other books waste time describing outdated
photography technology, this book describes only
modern DSLRs and post-processing software.
