Book Reviews of The Art of Outdoor Photography: Techniques for the Advanced Amateur and Professional

Book Review: For beginners, not advanced amateurs and professionals
Summary: 3 Stars

The sub-title of the book says "Techniques for the Advanced Amateur and Professional." Hardly. This is simply one of many generalist photography books geared to beginners and "non-advanced" amateurs. Don't expect to find anything that isn't in dozens of similar books. The photos are average, and aren't helped by the lacklustre quality of the printing.

Summary of The Art of Outdoor Photography: Techniques for the Advanced Amateur and Professional

With "The Art of Outdoor Photography", Norton has created a comprehensive volume on the art and technique of outdoor shooting. Tips on lenses, shutterspeed, depth of field, and lighting are presented for professionals and experienced amateurs alike.

Norton's fascinating anecdotes and invaluable pointers will engage many levels of photographers. His vivid photos illustrate key concepts, and run the gamut from markets in Kenya to mountaintops in Siberia.

This popular book has been revised and updated with a major revision to the films and filters material; films and filters mark the greatest advance in photography over the past few decades. New chapters include: "Into the Boondocks," "Organizing Photo Files," and "Breaking Into Print."
