The New School of Photography
Basics and Advanced Shooting Techniques
How can I quickly set up a perfect exposure in manual mode? How do I produce minimum (or maximum) depth of field? How can I use the inverse-square law to my best advantage? What do terms such as “hyperfocal distance”, “optimal aperture”, or “the Scheimpflug principle” mean? How do things like phase-detection autofocus, a light meter, studio flash, or a view camera work? How can I focus in the dark? How do I capture focus stacked, HDRI, and macro panoramas? How do I set up a color-managed photo workflow?
In this book, Tilo Gockel uses a wealth of real-world examples to provide clear answers to all these questions and more. He uses plenty of illustrations and easy-to-understand explanations to give you a solid technical base for your own creative experiments.
Topics include:
- Why light is so important in human perception
- How to manipulate light
- How to measure light and set appropriate exposure values
- The effects of perspective
- How the aperture setting affects your results
- How to alter depth of field and what “bokeh” is
- How a digital image sensor works
- How color management works
The book includes real-world examples of people, food, product, and landscape photography, a section with 65 self-test tasks (including solutions), a comprehensive reference section, and a directory of the symbols used.
