It started strong, but lost my interest towards the middle. If I was trying to become a professional photographer, then I think it would be great, but I'm just trying to take some semi decent photos of the stuff I make in my workshop, so it was all a bit more complex than I was looking for.
A lifetime of experience condensed for the keen novice. The behind-the-scenes photos of the stands and lighting set-ups, as well as clear instructions on how to build the fixtures yourself are really useful.
