Langford's Basic Photography: The Guide for Serious Photographers

A must have reference for any photographer that aspires to learn more and become better at seeing and capturing images. The illustrations, diagrams, and photographs all work well to reinforce the lessons in the text.

This book is a great book for a person learning serious photography. It also covers some intermediate topics. There is also mention of Medium format SLRs (Hassleblad and Mamiya) and TLRs. This book gives equal coverage to both film and digital.

I really thank this book,it's useful and give me many good leading on my major learning and professional shooting.)I will be more careful and serious with each of my projects.)

Good overall guide for beginners. Exceptionally good for those who have no introduction to film and film techniques.

To my opinion, one of the best manuals for basic photography. My sun is very happy with it as helps him a lot.

The book arrived in great condition and in good time. The item was also well priced. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Thank you!

This book used to be good. It explains basic principles of photography very well.Although in its ninth edition, and published in 2010, the book is still very old. It is film-oriented and need a complete overhaul. A lot of techniques are already out-dated. About half of the book can be completely ignored. It talks too much about film, film processing, large format camera, hand-held meter etc.The books need a complete re-written. Simply adding some contents of digital cameras does not make it modern.

a really nice book and the information s great

Nothing to dislike this is a excellent book for budding and serious photographers.

Excellent book which has been very helpful.

I'm on a BTEC level 2 photography course and am starting from scratch with zero technical knowledge. This book was recommended by my tutor and I'm using it as background reading to get me up to speed quicker. It's brilliant - contains everything you need to know to support practical work, including lots of references to well-known photographers for research.

this was for my son who is studying photography and has been very useful. Was well packed and delivered on time.

Excellent book for the beginners of photography. In particular this was our Bible in understanding the science over 1st year.
