CREATIVE EXPOSURE CONTROL: How to get the exposure you want every time, by Les Meehan. Amphoto Books, 2001, 128 pages, $24.95, ISBN 0-8174-3727-4. Most books on exposure just tell you to increase exposure for light subjects, reduce it for dark ones, and bracket. Meehan goes further, explaining lighting ratios and how to control them, how different light levels, colors, and subject angle can distort meter readings, etc. He also offers an excellent explanation of how to adapt Ansel Adams' zone system to 35 mm., whether you process your own, use a lab, or shoot digitally. The result: more control, better photos, and more sales. -David Arnold http://www.photosourcefolio.com/bookstoreone.htm#0817437274
