Digital Macro & Close-up Photography (Revised and Expanded Edition)

I have read Ross Hoddinott's previous version of this book and it is interesting to see the improvements he has added to this newer version. Ross has improved his own photography and this is clear by the wide range of stunning close up photographs from insects to feathers and some interesting projects with household objects. My favourite parts of the book are making insect photography accessible to all with good advice on time to photograph and how to get those elusive dragonfly shots. There is an interesting section on using water droplets to create refraction effects with some lovely examples Ross has explained clearly so all could follow his lead. An excellent book for beginner and intermediate macro photographers.

Good information for macro photography

A book to suit all photographers interested in macro work accompanied by excellent examples of each type with clear explanations of technique

Heaps more useful information for the macro addict in the Revised Edition, even if you own the original publication. As usual, Ross explains things very clearly, and the inclusion of the camera settings for each image is always very helpful. Would highly recommend for beginner or experienced alike.

I bought this book as I wanted to learn how to take macro photos. Have read from cover to cover and thoroughly enjoyed this book, lots of hints and tips and easy to understand as a beginner to macro photography.

As a newcomer to photography, this book is very helpful with good explanations and terrific colour photos. A very good book about macro photography.

Love this book covers all aspects of macro and close up photography in small easy to read bits.

This is a nicely prepared book with lots of good ideas for a first time user of a macro lens.

Ble libro, ben scritto e ben illustrato. Da questo punto di vista, Ross Hoddinott è sempre una garanzia. Consigliato vivamente.

useful tricks and pics are amazing.

Fantastic book for the beginners.Very much informative.

Super

The text is unreadable since it is not formatted for digital use but rather appears to be a simple scanning of the paper version. If you zoom in to better see the text you soon get tired at looking at the poor resolution used. Finally, neither the index nor any other part is hyperlinked. If it had been possible I would have given it 0 stars.
