Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?PAULA B : This video came highly recommended by people on a forum I belong to. I have watched it and found it very, very helpful. I would recommend it to anyone trying to learn the Zone system. However, note that it's a series of Flash videos that run on your computer and not a movie you can watch on your TV. Also it's full of misspellings and grammatical errors.

Rated 5 out of 5

Absolutely great. Changed my workflow!

I have read about the zone system in other books but this totally explained it to me where it matters to how you are taking pictures. I had 'Aha!' moments one after another. It plays in a Flash interface, but that is really not relevant. If you have had trouble with exposure, this will help you. I wish I had watched this a long time ago.

Great Information - Poor Presentation

This is not a movie that you can watch on your TV. You must have a computer to watch the files. While I found it to be one of the best explanations of the zone system I have ever heard, the typos, misspellings, and grammatical errors were distracting.
