From the Back Cover

Exposure is the deceptively simple concept at the very heart of photography. It has always been a subject of fascination to aspiring amateurs and professional photographers alike. Recent developments in digital technology have transformed the ways in which exposures can be manipulated, and this in turn has forced photographers to think about what they can achieve by understanding the variables of aperture, ISO and time.

In this book Michael Freeman takes you through this difficult and fast-moving area with a lucid and accessible method, using unique workflow illustrations, histograms, and clear, visual examples to explore the subtleties of the subject and enable you to shoot with confidence.

The attention to detail is given an extra angle via a Web-linkedTM internet address that allows you to see subtle details discussed in the book using the full clarity of your computer screen.
