Description
Saddington (a photographer, artist, and teacher) offers practical, do- it-yourself advice for artists who want to create professional looking slides of two- and three-dimensional works of art without buying expensive equipment. The illustrated guide offers multiple examples of correct and incorrect results, advice on how to choose a camera and lighting equipment, and tips for avoiding problems with exposure, poor framing, glare, color casts, and camera shake. Although the book covers the use of digital cameras, the author clearly promotes the traditional film cameras as the best choice for art photography.
