If thats the book I'm thinking of, its used as the basis of a lot of photography courses.

Michael Langford is a professor teaching photography IIRC.

Well worth having :thumbs:

DSLR Magazine have an offer on that gets you a free bag, one less thing to have to buy & the magazine is full of useful info (y)

http://www.dslruser.co.uk/viewpage.php?page_id=10

A good book to help learn the basics & the theory behind photography is a book called Basic Photography by Michael Langford, I had it recommended to me by Ross & it's actually very good

Feel free to add useful tips into this thread, then we could maybe have it topped?
