Synopsis:With today's sophisticated automatic exposure cameras, it's possible to achieve a fairly high level of proficiency at shooting typical digital photographs without much thought to the fundamental concepts of photographic exposure. As a result, most mid-level photographers have only a sketchy knowledge of photographic theory and even less sense of how to apply the theory to practical shooting situations. Exposure and Lighting for Digital Photographers Only will give readers a deeper understanding of exposure and lighting and the ability to apply that knowledge to achieve real creative control over their digital photography. It's assumed that readers know basic photographic theory and how to operate a camera. What they probably don't fully understand is how various photographic theories sometimes interact to produce surprising results. This book will remedy that with scores of example photographs and lighting diagrams.
