Essential to this  \t\t\tis the understanding of how meters work and the effect of shutter  \t\t\tspeeds and aperture not only on exposure, but creative composition.  \t\t\tFinally Doty takes the reader into real life to show how exposure is  \t\t\timportant in a variety of real life situation. This is another solid  \t\t\tbook for the both the beginner and intermediate photographer, and a  \t\t\tmust read for learning how to get the most out of light. The book  \t\t\tfinishes up with a great discussion of the &#8220;Ten Decisions that Will  \t\t\tCost You.&#8221;\u00c2\u00a0 Great advice!<\/p>\n<li>Paperback: 384 pages<\/li>\n<li>Publisher: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dummies.com\/store\/Arts-Photography\/Digital-Photography.html\" target=\"_blank\"> For Dummies<\/a> 1 edition (November 16, 2010)<\/li>\n<li>Language: English<\/li>\n<li>ISBN-10: 0470647620<\/li>\n<li>ISBN-13: 978-0470647622<\/li>\n<li>Product Dimensions: 9.1 x 7.4 x 0.9  \t\t\tinches<\/li>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong>Text: A++<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>Layout: A<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>Photography: A<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>User<strong>: <\/strong>All Photographers<\/p>\n<p>***\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 ***\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 ***<\/p>\n<p>You can learn more about <em>Digital Photography Exposure for Dummies<\/em> <a href=\"http:\/\/jimdoty.com\/learn\/exp_book\/exp_book.html\">here<\/a>, and buy it <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/0470647620\/jimdotycom-20\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The book by Tim Clark is <em>Digital Photography Composition for Dummies<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a screen capture of the review from the magazine&#8217;s site.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/apogee_fulks_review_DPED.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1695\" title=\"apogee_fulks_review_DPED\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/apogee_fulks_review_DPED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"355\" height=\"816\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/apogee_fulks_review_DPED.jpg 355w, https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/apogee_fulks_review_DPED-130x300.jpg 130w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 355px) 100vw, 355px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michael Fulks, the publisher of Apogee Photo Magazine, wrote at an excellent review of Digital Photography Exposure for Dummies in his magazine.\u00c2\u00a0 Here&#8217;s the review:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1693","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-books","category-general"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1693","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1693"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1693\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1698,"href":"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1693\/revisions\/1698"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1693"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1693"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1693"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
