"Closeups In Nature may seem a bit dated but the techniques still apply to the digital world. The information on exposures is still very useful and anybody using off camera flash will find the information still applies.
Exposure is exposure and that's what this book deals with among many other things that still apply in the digital age.
I feel every photographer should put their digitals in full manual and shoot, and quit relying on auto everything.
Exposure dosent change , light transmittance dosent change, it's all the same just a differnt format.
Although the book talks about film you will find the information useful. I among many photographers still tend to use film quite often,"
