About the author

Librarian note: There is more than one author with this name in the Goodreads database.

Michael Freeman is a professional photographer and author. He wrote more than 100 book titles. He was born in England in 1945, took a Masters in geography at Brasenose College, Oxford University, and then worked in advertising in London for six years. He made the break from there in 1971 to travel up the Amazon with two secondhand cameras, and when Time-Life used many of the pictures extensively in the Amazon volume of their World's Wild Places series, including the cover, they encouraged him to begin a full-time photographic career.

Since then, working for editorial clients that include all the world's major magazines, and notably the Smithsonian Magazine (with which he has had a 30-year association, shooting more than 40 stories), Freeman's reputation has resulted in more than 100 books published. Of these, he is author as well as photographer, and they include more than 40 books on the practice of photography - for this photographic educational work he was awarded the Prix Louis Philippe Clerc by the French Ministry of Culture. He is also responsible for the distance-learning courses on photography at the UK's Open College of the Arts.

Reviews

[Damiano · Rating 5 out of 5]

Libro molto completo e facile da capire anche per chi non sa nulla di questo mondo. Ha molte immagini ed è molto curato

[Paul White · Rating 4 out of 5]

A comprehensive book covering all aspects of modern photography with plenty of examples to explain the key components. It does well to cover all aspects without getting bogged down on the specifics of camera models, because the principles are the same.

Mr Freeman does a good job at explaining the impact of exposure time, ISO setting, and lens aperture, but more importantly how to make them work. The secret in any dish, though, is the eating. And to get the best from this book is to follow the examples and get to know your own camera.

If you're just getting back into photography after years of hiatus and wanted a little refresher this is pretty good!

[Andy · Rating 4 out of 5]

I mean I don't know enough about photography to say that it's true that this book contains all you need to know to take perfect photos, but it does feel like it contains enough to know what you're doing wrong.

It is super comprehensive and super broad which I think is great for an intro guide. Take some shitty pictures and then read this.

Ottimo manuale per chi vuole approcciarsi con la fotografia digitale o per chi, come me, intende ripassare per riprendere in mano una vecchia passione e trasformarla in qualcosa di più. Molto utile anche da sfogliare in caso di bisogno.
Se proprio gli si vuole trovare qualche difetto, sarebbe stato meglio se l'autore avesse incluso nel discorso anche le fotocamere bridge (per chi è alle prime armi meglio non maneggiare subito una reflex), non avesse parlato solo di scatti in modalità raw (la mia bridge, ad esempio, scatta solo in modalità jpeg) e non avesse parlato solo dei software adobe per la post produzione (esistono un sacco di programmi gratuti e validi allo stesso modo di photoshop).

E' veramente una 'bibbia', c'è quasi tutto quello che un fotografo possa voler imparare. Il livello di approfondimento dei tantissimi argomenti non è profondissimo, ma ce n'è abbastanza per sperimentare e le sfide proposte dal libro danno obiettivi chiari e stimolanti. Utile ad un novizio come introduzione comprensiva a partire dalla quale approfondire gli argomenti che più gli interessano e per persone mediamente esperte per individuare aree che mancano al proprio bagaglio.
