nice book, but...: i would have appreciated more than what basically amounts to a beautifully written and presented Nikon sales pitch. This book seems geared more toward people with extradisposable incomes or professionally funded camera setups, not an avid amateur enthusiasts.
great ideas about available light photography: The book does an excellent job of taking the photographer behind the camera. It does this by explaining how the photographs are made. It is a defenite buy for anyone wanting to improve their skills in low light photography.
No follow through.: I expected a lesson in advanced photography. The text was informative, the photographs were not. Many example photographs that were supposed to instruct me in the use of colored gels on flashes or lights were printed in black and white! What a disappointment!
A good book for beginners: This was my first "real" book on photography, and I must say it helped me a lot. I changed my point of view when I was behind my own camera, because of the stories Joe and Barry described. It is easy and fun to read.
