Understanding Exposure, Fourth Edition
How to Shoot Great Photographs with Any Camera
About the book
Bryan Peterson, a veteran photographer, breaks exposure into its basic parts, light, aperture and shutter speed, and explains how each one affects the other two. The emphasis falls on finding the right exposure in tricky situations. Other topics include gaining or losing sharpness and contrast, freezing action, taking good meter readings, and working with filters, flash and light. This updated edition uses all new images, expands the section on flash, and adds advice on colored gels and on shooting star trails. Peterson aims to make exposure clear to photographers at every level, from those just starting out to experienced shooters.
John Craig, owner of John Craig Media, recommends it to anyone starting out in photography, arguing that the fundamentals of the craft never change.

Photography is an ever-expanding field, yet the fundamentals never change, also this is where many fall short. Understanding Exposure by Bryan Peterson is the book that I recommend to anybody starting off.
