Learning SLR photography

First of all, you can choose a reference book about your camera skills, starting with understanding your camera. For example, if your camera is Canon 70D, you can buy a book called Canon 70D Digital SLR Photography from Introduction to Mastery. If you are a user of Nikon and Sony, you can also buy books corresponding to camera models. It is an upgraded version of the camera manual. Different camera functions are biased, and there will be many practical tips that you can't see in the manual, which is much more interesting than the boring manual.

Secondly, if you want to save some money, you can skip the above books and read the instructions directly. With the basis of operating a camera, to study light, you can buy a book "Flash is everything" and learn about the use of light.

Thirdly, the post-processing books are the most, which depends on what kind of photography you want to engage in. Recommend a book, Post-processing Skills of Photoshop Landscape and Humanistic Photography, which is good.

However, no matter how useful these books are, don't forget to read a more systematic and comprehensive tutorial like "Photography Textbook of New York Institute of Photography", which will be of great help to you.

Finally, photography has a wide range of fields. With the above foundation, you can start from your hobbies and specialize in a certain field, such as scenery, portraits, advertisements, news, documentaries, ecology, animals, sports, astrophotography and so on. And then decide which books to buy for reference. Photography involves a wide range of subjects, and no one can shoot everything well. If you understand your pursuit, you can find the way to go.
