This is a very handy book for a new camera. It makes finding all the settings and features very easy. Plus it fits in my camera bag nicely. I wish I had one for my last camera.

Smaller than I expected, but it's a beautiful addition to my drawing skills educational books. I'd love to read other books from this series.

I love the rocky nook books. I have many and have always taken things away from them and learned something new. This one is no different!

This is more of an identifier of buttons and their functions. Don't expect it to answer a question or give a short cut to a menu selection.

One of the best books to learn about your camera. Shows you how to do things in the menu rather than just show you where they are as in the user guide.

Got a concern with the Canon 5D Mark IV. Check the index and find a concise definition and solution. A great resource for learning the many features of the Canon 5D Mark IV. Other camera books have been just so-so. This one is easy to read and find out what you need.

This book provided my little sister with all the resources to help guide her in the direction of an artist. She was struggling with creating proportionate figures and shapes to portray a realistic image, and with this book she now has the motivation to go and improve on her art further. I highly recommend this towards up and coming artists.

I looked all over the web for this title. Adorama had the best price by far! Even over Amazon!

Beautiful, informative, well written and, of course, well illustrated book. Certainly a must for first time drone photographers with lots of tips. Have purchased two more copies to give as Christmas gifts to friend drone flyers.

This book is very in depth and informative and well worth the price. It goes into much more detail than the camera manual and expands on the functions.

The one I purchased had defects that lead me to believe it’s a factory second.

Great book. Working my way through. So much insight, simple to read and understand. First camera purchase in many years. I was thankful it has the basics and more advanced chapters to work on. Very well written and thought out for the working photographer. So not the manufacturers manual. Practical, and concise. I highly recommend this book. There’s a nugget in every chapter!

Ordered The Natural Light Portrait Book and it showed up on time and I highly recommend this book as well as Adorama. If you want someone you can trust, order from Adorama.

In recent years, film photography has witnessed a significant renaissance-and not just among those who have previously shot with film. Interest in film photography and analog photography has also grown enormously among those who only have experience shooting digitally. In The Film Photography Handbook, 2nd Edition, authors Chris Marquardt and Monika Andrae speak to both types of film photographers as they offer an easy-to-understand, complete resource to shooting film. In this updated and expanded edition, they address today's working climate, including such topics as the hybrid film/digital workflow, the digitization of negatives, and using smartphones for light metering and to assist in film processing.
This book is intended for anyone who is curious about film and analog photography, whether you need a refresher course or are discovering this wonderful format for the first time. You'll learn how easy it is to shoot and process black-and-white film at home, and that just a little special equipment is needed to get into film photography.
You'll learn all about:
The important differences between film and digital photography
Numerous film cameras, as well as how to buy a second-hand camera
Film formats, from 35 mm to medium format and large format
Exposure settings, tonal values, and tonal representations in different types of film, from color negatives and slides to the enormous spectrum of black-and-white films
Processing film, covering everything you need to know: equipment, chemicals, and workflow
Scanning negatives to bring your analog photography into a digital workflow
Both presenting and archiving your prints and negatives
Working in such an "analog" medium requires a unique approach to photography, and it fosters a completely different form of creativity. Working in film and embracing analog photography can also prove to be a great inspiration for your own digital photography, as well. The Film Photography Handbook, 2nd Edition covers it all-from the technical to the creative-and will have you shooting film in no time, whether it's with an old rangefinder, an inexpensive Holga, or a medium-format Rolleiflex or Hasselblad.
