This book's seven information-packed chapters include a wealth of tables, charts, graphs, lists, and plenty of full-color illustrations to show the results you can expect by using the recommended settings. This portable, on-the-go reference cuts through the confusion and gives you the information you need when you need it, whether you're shooting around the house or in the field.
