Enough said, buy it!

Enough people that are far smarter than I have written very descriptive essays almost on why this is a great book to buy. That being said, I will just say I concur, buy it! As a beginner, I found it very eye opening and invaluable.

Well written, well illustrated

For beginners, amateurs, enthusiasts and the like, this book makes a good kick start on several lighting techniques.

You get the basics explained in detail, fx. butterly/paramount lighting, along with some funny anecdotes - and there's room for playing around with variations on the light setups.

The photos shown are very good, without being extremely exceptional - which I find is a good thing for this type of book. "First you gotta crawl..." :)

I'm pretty experienced in studio light setup, yet I found this book gave me inspiration as well as education.

Good Book

This was actually a gift for a friend, but I always try to peruse before I hand over a book just to make sure it doesn't have any questionable content.

I am not very interested in photography, but I found the book very fascinating. If I had had time, I would have read it more in depth.

However, the reason I did not give it a fifth star is because it had some questionable pictures in it. Nothing too bad, but it was enough to catch my attention. Because of the pictures, this is a book I would only give to responible adults. Definitely not to kids or teens.

A very good book!,

This is the material that is ausent here, in Uruguay. I believe the reviews before published, were right!! and I'm very pleasant to recommend this book!

Good Source for Basic Information

This is a good book to start with for basic lighting set-ups for specific (and a little generic) looks with relevant explanations. I have mostly an artistic background and this is a good intro to more commercial standards to play around with. It does not necessarily explain some of the more current styles of lighting, but it does work with a solid foundation.
