Photog Book

What's the name of that photog book that everyone recommends for those beginners trying to understand photography better?  Understanding Aperture (I thought - but can't find it)?  BTW we have a Nikon D40 in case that matters.

Re: Photog Book

  • Understanding Exposure by Bryan Peterson. I have a Nikon D60, which is almost exactly the same as the D40, so we can ask each other, if need be. :-)

    ETA: This post on the photog board is extremely helpful, and it includes a link to the free 12 Weeks to Better Photography class on 2 peas.

  • Yes, Understanding Exposure (which is very informative!).  Speaking of, I really need to dig out the book and re-read it, I could use a refresher.  

    I also did the 2 peas 12 weeks to better photography and I learned a ton!  

    I have the D40 too, and so far I have no complaints :)

  • I checked the link I posted and, unless I missed it, it actually didn't have the 2 peas class linked. There was a link to some other articles and lessons on 2 peas, but not the 12-week class. I found it here.

    If anyone's interested. we could try doing this class here together? With a weekly check-in? LMK

    I'd be interested in that.

    Me too. I downloaded that class a couple months ago but have yet to get get started.

  • I am also interested in doing that class.  I came across Julia + Tyson's blog last night through a friend's wedding pictures and her pictures are just amazing and re-inspired me to take a shot at photography.  Plus, I found out she went to my high school.  Big Smile

  • Okey dokey, then, let's do it. Smile

    Is a Tuesday check-in OK? Mondays are tough for me. I think most of us would need the weekend to do the assignments, then Monday to download and organize, Tuesday check-in? We could do lesson one this by this coming Tuesday, probably in the afternoon if that's OK.

     Sounds good to me.  Maybe we can post a reminder on Fridays?

  • Tuesdays sound good to me! Although I'm going to be crazy busy for the next two weekends, so I'm kind of expecting to fall behind right off the bat. If that happens, though, I'll try to catch up and join in for week three!
