[QUOTE="sf340flier, post: 405772, member: 5806"]Just came in the mail for me. I am not a professional photographer, and his book is perfect for me. He explains all the things I hear everyone talk about...f-stop, iso, etc. The first couple of chapters are a great intro. He explains things I didn't even know about (mirror-lock on my slr for instance...who knew???) He also discusses the various methods to take pictures of different kinds of coins, from low contrast to high contrast. His discussion of lighting is great. He has tons of full color photos demonstrating different effects on the same coin side by side. I have really learned alot from my short read. My only criticism is the book looks more like a thick magazine and I'm afraid it won't last too long if used like one of my normal reference books. So I'll have to treat it nicely. Worth the price imo.[/QUOTE]
