5.0 out of 5 stars Get this book! April 20 2010
By Gromit
Format:Paperback
From the 3 or 4 books on photo i've bought, this is the best. In fact I was so pleased with his "understanding exposure" book, I bought this one instead of buying all the other ones.
It starts from the basics(aperture/ISO/shutter speed: I thought I had nothing extra to learn on these topics-I was wrong), explains the basics of combining them to get the best picture (not just a good, picture, but the best picture), and then covering more advanced topics and different situations, and important tips on composition. Not all the pros can understand why non-pros can't get the picture that good, but Peterson can and will help you correct that. And he won't do it using time-wasting Photoshop gizmos.

A MUST if you're anything between beginner to intermediate-advanced with a DSLR.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the two best Field Guides among all... Mar 7 2010
Format:Paperback
Bryan Peterson's Understanding Photography Field Guide is a MUST if, like me, you enjoy (even on the go...) reading anectodes explaining ways by which a given professional photographer tackles various challenges regarding aperture / shutter speed / composition choices. It combines most of its previous masterpieces in one without compromising anything in picture or text qualities. Equally amazing for its wealth of information within a dense yet clear format, don't forget to take a serious look at Daniel Lezano's wonderful Photography Bible (New Edition)!
