John Hedgecoe
Focal Press, 1998
Was required for my photography class
+ The best photo course ever!
+ Recommended

John Child
Focal Press, 2005
easy money maker for author!!
since their are not many digital photography books for instructors,
they pick what they think will fit the bill-it's irritating when they don't even look at the book before requiring it. the book is o.k., but
should not be used for a textbook! it's insulting. to anyone interested in

Photographic Lighting: Essential Skills, Third Edition (Photography Essential Skills) 4 reviews
John Child, Mark Galer
Focal Press, 2004
what type of photographer are you?
+ Essential Skills - Photographic Lighting
I think the question is whether you are an advanced amateur or pro photographer already-someone who is looking for advanced diagrams, etc. on studio setups, etc. That is NOT the type of book this is. For someone-such as myself-who is self-taught and trying to learn or solidfy an understanding of ...
