Product Description

Cutting-edge information for professionals

* Master digital exposure, then HDR imaging

* Case studies from actual assignments

* Authoritative tips, tricks, and techniques

With Mastering Digital Exposure and HDR Imaging, professional and aspiring-professional photographers can explore the little-understood realm of digital exposure--as well as the emerging exposure-based techniques of High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging. Exposure is challenging, and digital cameras add new wrinkles to the complex equations. From the linear nature of digital sensors and digital noise, to white balance, ISO equivalency, and dynamic range, author Chris Weston explains it all. With a sound background in exposure, readers will be ready to explore HDR imaging. Throughout, case studies from actual assignments, both studio and field based, reveal the real-world applications of each new technique.

Customer Reviews

Very small type.3
I have been reading this book since it was delivered. It includes a very interesting combination of topics on the latest in digital photography that are exposed quite well. Nice diagrams and pictures are used to illustrate and explain the different concepts on digital exposure and image capture and processing. It is very informative and also makes reference to the newer software. Unfortunately the letter type is so small that it makes for very uncomfortable reading (almost offensive). It is a shame to see how space is wasted in the book layout instead of using this space to include a bigger type to offer easier and more enjoyable reading.

If I could only read it...2
It looks interesting but the print is so small compared to the average book that it is exhausting to read it. I am returning it.

Well worth reading4
The book provides a good mix of technical information and 'how to' steps. I read the book cover to cover in two days and will be using it as reference as I get into HDRI processing.
