Book Reviews of Rick Sammon's Digital Photography Secrets
Book Review: RICK FIRES BULLETS
Summary: 5 Stars
Well aimed and straight to the point are Rick Sammon's "secrets". Actually my friend Rick has no secrets as he always shares his wealth of knowledge freely. It is as if he were answering questions in one of his seminars. In this book he devotes one page to each subject: from how to best photograph in the rain while protecting yourself and equipment to explaining the "Dis-Equilibrium" effect. Salient information without mombojumbo is how he presents his important bullets. I carry my copy of the book with me when I know I will have to wait, like for the car to be worked on. I scan subject after subject till the car is ready. I think it is a book best read in snippets in preparation for a shoot.
Definitely check out page 14 to find out how knowing the difference in dynamic range capabilities between your eye, film and digital media can improve how you can capture what you see.
It is a fun and wonderfully illustrated book that will help improve you photographic efforts.
