Mastering Capture: Digital Photography Essentials

In film-based photographic education, strong programs and
writings have placed great emphasis on making a negative.
But to get to the negative, good exposure is required.
The beginning of the photographic process significantly
affects the final outcome of an image - a fact that has
not changed with digital photography. Capture: Digital
Photography Essentials concentrates on photography from a
digital-capture workflow point of view. The text
addresses both the opportunities and limitations of
digital photography, and how to work with those
opportunities and around the limitations. Authors Glen
Rand, Chris Broughton, and Amanda Quintenz-Fiedler
discuss the digital tools that allow photographers to
capture, create, and maintain high-quality digital
photographs. Readers will learn to maximize the potential
of their images through an understanding of the core
principles and more advanced aspects of the digital
photographic process.
