Although digital technology has simplified some aspects of photography, an understanding of lighting and composition is still necessary to take good images, and familiarity with the concepts of exposure, aperture and shutter speed is required for the more ambitious photographer. This highly illustrated guide advises on the relative merits of different types of cameras and considers digital file types, file management, retouching and printing as well as exploring photographic techniques for all types of subject matter.
Chris Gatcum is a photographer, journalist and author. He has been a technical writer for the UK's longest-standing photography magazine, 'Amateur Photographer', and his books include 'Camera Creative', 'Light & Shoot: 50 Fashion Photos' and 'Landscape Photography: The Four Seasons'.
