A trip down memory lane?! - Rated Reading this book makes you feel like you've gone back a decade or so, and you're no longer in the very real world of digitial photography. Examples are old-hat, film-based, and fairly pedestrian. There's also a healthy smattering of pseudo-artistic waffle from contributors, at the expense of more useful detail behind each example. Did they put the wrong publication date on this book?? OK but no good for digital users - Rated This book has some great pictures of lighting set-ups and is useful for that but the resulting prints are not reflective of the techniques used. Most of the shots have been taken using medium format film cameras and the resulting print is more down to the processing and printing than the lighting used. I am also amazed at how many of the shots are out of focus and presume this has been done for arty effect. I think you would be better spending your money on a lighting course to get the best experience of lighting. nice pics, good inspiration, poor detail - Rated there are some great pics in this book and it shows where to place your studio lights. the lighting set-ups cover everything from a simple on camera flash to several studio lights. There is no technical information in this book, so if you want to know how to set up your lights you'll be somewhat dissapointed. Super book for lighting - Rated I have a lot of photography books, but this is one of my favourites. If you are serious about lighting portraits this is a must buy. It features a large number of top class portraits and shows you the lighting set up for each shot. Very good for professionals or people just interested - Rated I have found this book so far to be a very interesting and informatic read. I have found it useful and very helpful when using my studio, but i fear that is the only reason I feel it is good, because i actually have the equipment to do the stuff inside of it. Some of the pictures inside need 6 or more studio flash's with softboxs etc, and most people do not own that. If you do own that, this book is the best avalible, but if not im afraid it makes no more than a very good tea-table book of some nice art.
