Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Superb for the beginner to DSLRI cannot emphasise enough how well this book sets out the basics of DSLR photography. I am on my first DSLR and to be honest knew nothing about aperture, shutter speed and ISO and how the 3 interelate. This book sets these out so clearly that the layman can understand. Been wondering how/when to use the P, M, A or S buttons on your camera ?, This explains it perfectly, and gives nice glossy examples of a scene when you would use f/4 vs f/22. I also have the David Busch book to "replace" the manual, but this far exceeds what you can learn from that. Both good books in their own right. Rating: - Fantastic book for DSLR beginners!In a nutshell - this is everything you need as a DSLR beginner. Concise, to the point, and, quite simply, well explained. You won't get better. Buy this book if you want to progress quickly and understand the manual settings on your DSLR. Rating:  - Good starter textWhile the bias of this book leans heavily towards 35mm film cameras, with a vague nod in the direction of digital, it's still a worthwhile read. The information on aperture, shutter speed and ISO may be familiar enough, but the material on metering and exposure compensation is extremely interesting, not to mention useful. While Peterson's tendency to boast gets a little tiring (his comments discussing how he took a particular shot would be fine, if he didn't insist on showing off how quickly/well he'd done it) and occasionally his tone veers into patronising, but he clearly knows his stuff and manages to put it across in an informative and practical way. The book is reasonably useless unless you have a camera that allows you a high degree of ... Read More: Rating: - 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 says at the time of reading, there are pictures which show the results. So you can take it with you and read on the bus. It almost tells about everything but if you need a night or low light photography book it only tells about it a few pages. ...
