Publisher's Synopsis
The ideal guide for any photographer who wants to gain confidence in the basics of portrait lighting as well as develop their existing or newly-found skills. The widely-published author and lighting expert Stephen Dantzig begins with the fundamentals of camera light exposure and explains clearly how this differs from the way light is perceived by the human eye and, importantly, how to bridge this gap. Also covered are techniques for using exposure meters and the more complicated laws that govern light, all broken down and clearly explained with diagrams.
