John Hedgecoe's Photography Basics

The classic, picture-perfect manual for taking great photos gets a freshening up, with a brand-new, special section devoted to digital. Written by the world’s bestselling author on photography, it’s an image-filled and practical guide for beginners eager to start shooting--but who feel put off by technical jargon and complicated techniques. And Hedgecoe focuses on the most commonly owned starter cameras, too, as well as offering an invaluable list of "Twenty Ways to Improve Your Photos”� and 250 of his own inspiring pictures. � "Hedgecoe uses the most commonly owned beginners’ cameras...to demonstrate how the camera works in simple, nontechnical language.”--Photographic Trade News � "The lessons are easy, given the well-laid-out visual examples.”--Booklist � �"One of the best introductory texts...my highest recommendation.”--Shutterbug
