Film Photography
Books.gif)
Despite the vast
increase in the use of digital cameras, traditional 35mm cameras
are hardly out of style. A digital camera is next to useless
for taking high quality prints that you plan on putting on
your wall. Only a 35mm camera allows you to develop massive
posters of exceptional quality.
The film photography
books listed below will help any photographer improve their
technique and the quality of their pictures. For books about
digital photography, visit our digital
photography book section.
For taking traditional
film pictures, arguments rage about which camera brand is
better. I have used a Canon camera (EOS Rebel) for years and
have been very satisfied it. Canon cameras have quality optics,
take wonderful pictures, and are reliable and easy to use.

Galen Rowell is noted as one of the premiers landscpae
photographers in the United States today. This beautiful
book is not a "photography book" per se, with
a technical blow by blow on how to take pictures. Instead,
this book is as much a scenic landscape book, with absolutely
gorgeous pictures along with some brief information
on how each picture was taken.

Book
Description from Amazon.Com
The grand master of adventure photography reveals the
art, craft, and philosophy behind his images. In sixty-six
essays based on his popular column in Outdoor Photographer,
and in more than one hundred and sixty color photographs,
Galen Rowell shows how he transforms what he sees into
vivid, memorable works of art. He clearly explains why
"pre-visualizing" a photograph before exposing
any film is one key to making an arresting image rather
than a mere replica of what we see through the viewfinder.
Along the way he also offers advice on practical and
technical matters such as how to pack camera gear; what
to leave behind when you've got to travel light; pushing
film to extremes; and when and how to use fill flash,
smart flash, and remote smart flash. This is a how-to
photography book by an artist who has made adventure
and photography a way of life. It is both an inspired
manual to taking better photographs and an inspiring
journey of discovery into the creative process. 160
color photographs.

soon as light levels fall, this brilliant photography
book shows how, with just a little skill and imagination,
even amateurs can produce breathtaking photographs in
nighttime or low-light settings. The guide begins with
a clear explanation of technical aspects that must be
considered, such as the best equipment to use for low-light
indoor or nighttime outdoor shots, which color and black-and-white
films to choose, how to ensure correct exposure in tricky
situations, and details relating to both natural and
artificial light. The book then tackles a wide range
of themes and lighting situations, presenting specific
guidance for shooting low-light landscapes, portraits,
buildings, carnivals, fireworks displays, and weather
phenomena such as lightning, sunrises, and sunsets.
