Outstanding companion to The Camera January 31, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
A must read. The explanation of the zone system is outstanding. I had taken a number of skyline photographs of Austin which when reviewed by professional photographers got 2 thumbs up. After looking at them with a critical eye on exposure and armed with my new understanding of the zone - I retook those same pictures and WOW. What an amazing ability to move your camera off of matrixed metering and know how to really set the exposure for what you want to show. Also helps you understand the tradeoffs the camera is making in it's exposure settings so you can be more purposeful in changes you might make. A critical read if you also intend to ever move into large format photography.
Excellent knowledge and informative January 15, 2007
excellent information on understanding photography. Touch on zone system and exposure.
Excellent Even For Digital Photographers! January 12, 2007

Although I did classic film photography for several years, I am now just digital. This is still a great book as it covers the zone system (still great for digital) and darkroom techniques that can easily be applied to the "digital darkroom". GREAT BOOK!
Art at its best. September 6, 2006

What can one say that has already not been said about Ansel Adams. I too am on the digital wave, but this book reminded me of what a pleasure making (art)a photograph can be. The information helped me to see my subjects from the negatives perspective. Very good to excellent for improving all of my photography.

Read it once, and forget everything you get in this book.
And make your own photo.
Some months later(or some years later), you can read it again.
And make it yours.
