Book Reviews of Color Photography: A Working Manual
Book Review: A Guide For Color Photographers
Summary: 4 Stars
Henry Horenstein, author of BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPHY: A BASIC MANUAL, a book often used as a photography text book, has a similar book on color photography. COLOR PHOTOGRAPHY: A WORKING MANUAL offers the same excellent how-to information provide in the black and white counterpart. The book contains many of Horenstein's excellent photographs and offers information regarding filters and developing color prints. While it contains some information on color transparencies (slides), it is somewhat scant and may in the long run be more helpful for printmakers. At a time when digital photography is all the rage, this book is not obsolete since Horenstein's expertise will help ant photographer, no matter what the medium.
Summary of Color Photography: A Working Manual
This guide to photographing and processing in colour starts with an historical overview and moves into practical advice on types of film and how to photograph in colour in different light conditions, how to adjust for best exposure, and how to use filters to alter colour balance. Film processing is reviewed in detail, along with a section on how to work with professional labs, since many photographers do not process their own colour film. A section on colour printing is intended particularly for students and committed amateurs, and other chapters cover health and environmental hazards and how to minimize them as well as long-term permanence of colour materials.Color Books
