Книга частично утратила свою актуальность, так как рассказывает, в первую очередь, о работе с пленочными фотоаппаратами. Но в ней содержится немало полезных советов по фотографированию разных объектов и в различных условиях.

This is a good book for beginning photographers. Not too technical, but a good overview.
