Imprimir Página - Libro : Shutter Speed

Voy a modificar la subida de libros, en principio voy a ir pasando solo lo que leo y creo que aporta algo, paso algunos datos y comentarios (según mi humilde criterio) como para tener alguna idea si vale la pena bajarlo

Idioma : inglés

Autor : Derek Doeffinger

Pág : +/- 250

Tema : atraviesa las diferentes velocidades de exposición en forma detallada en base a su experiencia, con ejemplos interesantes, pasa revista algunos temas básicos y es un fana del blur y del paneo, algunas de sus fotos yo no me animaría a postearlas.

Nivel : principiante avanzado /intermedio

Me pareció : f:5.6

(se me ocurrió calificar 2.8 el que no podés dejar de leer, 4.0 el que está muy bueno, 5.6 este, leible/interesante, y 8.0 el que después de leerlo no lo volvería abrir nunca para consultar algo)
