This is an outstanding book by Bryan Peterson. I consider it a must read item. It explains the art of photography in simple terms. I wish I had read it a lot sooner.

This book gave me a good idea of how to use the combination of shutter speed and aperture. I highly recommend this book to people who would like to know how to use their camera's manual controls to take better pictures.

If you want a basic guide to tell you about aperture, ISO, shutter speed, light metering and the like, then this is the right book for you. If you want a in-depth book about the physics of it all, then by all means buy the $100 book mentioned in one of the other reviews- it's a good one. But it's also $100. This one is much less!
This book helped me begin to understand what I was dealing with in my 35mm SLR. Things were broken down into no-nonsence explainations and written in everyday english. It has enough information to educate the everyday familly photographer into taking non-blurry photos, but plant enough basic skills as to provide an excellent base for further study if desired.
I would definatly recommend!

Due to my budget (or lack of) I have a habit of going to Borders and buying books and then returning them after I've read them. Yes - I know - terrible - so save me the comments...but I couldn't return this book. It is that good. I have been taking pictures for years and fumbling at the hard to get pictures. He explains how (and where) to meter with your camera to get the best results. It has fueled my passion to go out and try those shots that I never quite understood before from other books.
