Digital SLR Photography..

Technology and techniques — you can find both in this book. Understanding exactly how a digital SLR works can help you use its capabilities more fully. By mastering the technology, you're better equipped to understand how to use interchangeable lenses, set up speedy continuous-shooting burst modes, apply selective focus, and shoot under the lowest light levels.

Understanding how a point-and-shoot digital camera works offers you little advantage because such entry-level cameras don't give you the creative control that a dSLR does. You don't need to understand internal combustion to drive a Porsche, but it helps if you know a little about double-clutching and limited-slip differentials.

Technology also provides the grounding you need to work with advanced photographic techniques, such as the ones I discuss in this book. I fill these pages with basic information and tips that you can use to hone your skills while you grow as a digital SLR photographer. Enjoy your reading!.
