Books?

[Joshuashaw]

Can anyone reccomend any good DSLR photography books which don't concentrate on any particular type of photography but instead vary with info? Reccomendations appreciated.

I bought one of Andy Rouse's from a member on here, although it mainly deals with wildlife and landscapes, it does cover all digital topice well. A good buy and a better read.

It certainly explained how to use the histogram properly.

The book is called 'Digital SLR Masterclass'

There's a lot on the market but the best I've seen is the Digital SLR Handbook by Michael Freeman.

I spent the best part of an hour once browsing these type of books in Waterstones and this one stood out.

Do you specifically want DSLR photography books?

The best book for any photographer to read is without doubt "Understanding Exposure" by Bryan Peterson. But you don't have to use a DSLR to get benefit from it.

I have to second 'Understanding Exposure' by Bryan Peterson. Actually, I've enjoyed all the books I've read by Bryan Peterson. Also Lee Frost has some decent books out.
