John Hedgecoe : John Hedgecoe's Complete Guide to Photography

In this step-by-step course the author shares his fund of knowledge, acquired over 30 years as a professional photographer. The book is planned around 70 projects to provide the reader with a steadily-growing command of the subject, building up from a basic understanding of how the camera works towards a mastery of advanced techniques. The aim is to teach only what the reader needs to know at each stage, with technical information introduced progressively, to avoid unnecessary and confusing detail. The advice is intended for use with the latest compact cameras as well as with SLRs.
