Editorial Review:

Synopsis:
More than 100 vivid, graphic comparison pictures illustrate every point in this classic and can help any photographer maximize the creative impact of his or her exposure decisions. Peterson stresses the importance of metering the subject for a starting exposure and then explains how to use various exposure meters and different kinds of lighting. The book contains lessons on each element of the triangle and how it relates to the other two in terms of depth of field, freezing and blurring action, and shooting in low light or at night. A section on special techniques explores such options as deliberate under-and over-exposures, how to produce double exposures, bracketing, shooting the moon, and the use of filters. Understanding Exposure demonstrates that there are always creative choices about how to expose a picture - and that the decision is up to the photographer, not the camera.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Definetly a Great Book for Learners.
If you're new to digital photography or you think that you don't know the basics about exposure, which is very important for good pictures, you should definitely buy this book. I learned a lot about its theory. However it doesn't only tell about the theory itself but also gives practical tips and tricks, which help you understand how some wonderful pictures are taken. There are some exercises Bryan Peterson suggests doing and I found them very useful. Even if you are not able to do everything he ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent book
I bought this book only based on its good reviews and I was not disappointed. It is written in simple, easy to understand language, it is illustrated with amazing pictures and it is full of good tips. Buy it !



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Photography Exposed!
I cannot believe how much I have learnt from this fantastic book. Although I've had it for quite a while, on a spur of the moment I picked it off my bookshelf yesterday and literally couldn't put it down again until I had finished it today!

With my camera by my side as I read within moments I was out testing the suggestions for manual mode, something I had never dared try before. Over the course of the evening I captured some of my best ever portraits of my children and was honestly ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wow - exposure made easy
I bought this book after reading the reviews...and was rewarded !

I was afraid that it would be too technical but it is indeed explained in an easy to read AND understanding way (I'm not an English native speaker).
The many photographic examples make it easy to 'see' too.
As an avid amateur I have been experimenting and it's indeed literally a small price to pay to get nicer photo's in the end.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A light has been switched on for me
I bought this book because I first saw it mentioned in a forum on one of the photography sites when I was trying to get some info on metering systems. When I checked it out on Amazon and saw all the great reviews I had to buy it.

I am very much just an amateur photographer, but I did already have a basic understanding of how shutter speed, aperture and ISO work together.

I was OK with using Aperture or Shutter priority modes, but I would never have tried manual mode because ... Read More
