Tucao New York Institute of Photography

Recently, I have seen many people recommend the book "New York Institute of Photography" on different occasions. I have had enough. I want to strongly appeal to all walks of life: please don't mislead others with "new photos"!

I wonder if the people who recommended "New Photo" have really read this book? Or a parrot? You know, this book is not for beginners of photography at all.

The writing background of "New Photos" is still the era of film cameras, and the book uses a lot of space to introduce seriously outdated knowledge such as film, development and exposure meter. I just picked a catalog in the "new photos":

The automatic metering technology of cameras has been developed for decades. How to help beginners learn/understand such content? For x? There are many similar problems, and I'm too lazy to list them one by one.

If a novice who has just come into contact with photography reads New Photos, it may be counterproductive-such boring content and outdated knowledge may make him afraid of photography, and a generation of masters may be strangled in the cradle. ...

There is no denying that there are some essence contents in the book "New Photos" (in fact, there are few), but this book is seriously out of touch with the times. It seems that everyone else has used Win8, and you are still studying DOS commands. In addition, the book "New Photos" is basically a textbook, focusing on theory and teaching. Even in the film camera era, you need guidance to use it, and there is no possibility of self-study.

In a word, the new photos are completely deified in China. It has even become a weapon used by two knives to fool novices and force criminals. You must polish your glasses.

Finally, I spent another second thinking about why an "ancient book" that should have entered the museum a long time ago can have such a great influence. The conclusion is that the combination of the words "new york+Photography+College" is really lethal, and it is simply a height in the bones, which makes people who don't know the truth can't help but be moved. After reading this book, it seems that you can naturally step into the hall of photographers.
