Samuel G.: Ayant déjà "Understanding Photography" et "Understanding Composition" du même auteur, j'ai trouvé ce livre aussi intéressant que les autres. Il y a un peu de redite, mais les explications et les points à retenir sont plus clairs et plus ciblés sur chaque cas. Les photos d'illustration me plaisent toujours autant. A moins 10 euros livraison inclue, un must.

Fred Emery: Brian Peterson's book, Exposure Solutions is a basic, no nonsense approach to help you understand how to get good exposures in a variety of conditions. I read and still have the 3rd edition of his book, "Understanding Exposure which was a good first read. This new book gives me a fresh look at exposure to reinforce what I am mostly familiar with. The book is organized simply in a how-to format. This book along with much practice will help you shoot more intuitively when in the field.

ADF: This is another good book from Brian Peterson, well written, interesting, with great pictures and so practical that is comes in a different size that the others, this one is smaller but I think there's an intention for this.
This is a compilation of most of BP's books regarding exposure, with clear and simple recipes for some situations, in fact I think this is a book you need to carry with you just in case the situation comes and you know there's a proven good recipe in the book.

Crystal: I enjoyed reading this book (purchased Kindle digital format). I think Bryan Peterson is one of those photographers who makes it look easy and is able to teach effectively. This ia a great book for beginner to intermediate photographers. Lots of hints on how to get that photograph and how to think about the how things like exposure and aperture will affect not only getting a technically correct photo but how you can use it to tell a story and do something artistic. I see so many people critiquing technical correctness over the overall emotional and artistic aspects of a photo and perhaps we have lost some of the fun by trying to be technically correct instead of just capturing the emotion and story of what we're photographing. I think Peterson strikes a nice balance between all these aspects of photography and I also enjoyed the pictures in the book.

Sarah R.: Actually havent read all the way though yet (about half way though) but so far its amazing! I am so glad I got this book and highly recommend it. I am just learning about photography and have already noticed many of my problems and now how to fix them. Bryan Peterson is a great teacher. He makes the book interesting, shows examples, why your having the problems and how to fix them. I have read other books and magazines which were good on basic photography but I am learning about other things I have never heard about yet like a polarizing filter or graduated ND filters and what it does to your photo. If you want to learn how to get the best out of your photos I would give this book a try, its working great so far for me.

Antoinette: Awesome book to set you straight if you have been listening to people who don't know how to break away and explore. I have been shooting with a DSLR for 9 years and am just now learning that information I have been given was incorrect. This book answered many frustrations and questions that I had regarding getting a proper exposure. I read it, tried it and it works! Thank you, Bryan Peterson. I highly recommend this book to anyone struggling with exposure issues. If you think you know it all, think again and read this book. I was shocked and amazed at the information I gained from reading this book. It also give you some very creative ideas using exposure, fun stuff.

Barbara K: To get good at taking photographs, it was recommended that one needed to really understand exposures, more than anything else. When we asked what book would provide us with a good understanding of exposure, we were told to check out Bryan Peterson's book. He has two and I thought I would check out the one dealing with exposure problems, after all, it's what we want to deal with.

Dean: First off, I'm a bit biased having read and enjoyed pretty much every Bryan Peterson book he's written. Exposure Solutions takes all of the frequently occurring exposure challenges that photographers are likely to encounter and provides narrative, examples and in some cases, audio and video clips explaining how to tackle them. As ever with Bryan's books, the text is littered with practical example exposures (done right and wrong) which I personally always find very useful. The book is an easy cover to cover read but is probably more useful if used as a field guide when you run into one of those tricky situations but can't quite remember how to deal with it.

WickdWtchSouth: I am a big fan of Bryan Peterson and when I first saw this book available, I immediately purchased it for the iPad as a Kindle format. Sadly the first copy was corrupted and even though I was able to read the book, I was not able to use any of its multimedia files. I messaged Amazon and returned my book as they promised to get developers involved to fix the issue. I purposely waited to review the book once I would be able to fully experience the product Bryan meant for us to experience and it is a wonderful mix.

I love the "recipe style" approach to this book as when you are a novice, you mostly want to see how the masters have created their amazing photographs. Bryan has always been very generous at sharing his settings for any image on his books (one of the main reasons I like his books so much). But this time you get to see him on location sharing his short videos or hear an audio clip on why he is selecting a particular exposure combination. A great addition to the already visually rich material. The videos are short and to the point. So are the audio clips. I see one star reviews here only because of the multimedia glitch, now resolved, and I think it is unfair to an...
