Exposure is an essential part of photographic technique, but is often thought of as mysterious or difficult to understand. Digital cameras have brought a new dimension to exposure control, offering photographers the ability to review images in the field, as well as being able to change the sensitivity of the sensor from shot to shot. In this handy new book, Ross Hoddinott unravels the fundamentals of this fascinating subject and presents it in a clear and easy-to-understand way. This practical, jargon-free guide will be an essential companion out in the field, helping photographers turn theory into practice and to achieve creative control over their images.
