Understanding Exposure,3rd Edition

In an easy-to-understand style, the reader will learn the relationship between aperture and shutter speed, including how to achieve successful exposures in seemingly difficult situations. With new information on white balance, flash, HDR, and more… you will learn:

• Which aperture gives you the greatest contrast and sharpness, and when to use it
• Which apertures guarantee the background remains an out-of-focus tone
• Which one aperture—when combined with the right lens—creates an area of sharpness from three feet to infinity
• How to creatively use shutter speed to either freeze an action or imply motion
• Where to take a meter reading when shooting a sunset, snow, or a city at dusk
