"Langford's Advanced Photography" is the only Advanced Photography guide a serious student or aspiring professional will ever need. In this eighth edition, Efthimia Bilissi continues in the footsteps of Michael Langford by combining an unrivalled level of technical detail with a straightforward writing style while simultaneously bringing the text firmly in to the digital era.

The book also benefits from a full glossary, charts and inspirational full colour images throughout, with summaries and projects at the end of each chapter to reinforce the theory. This is a highly respected guide for serious photographers wanting to advance their skills, now in its 8th edition. It is fully updated to cover new digital technologies and methodologies, from HDR imaging to digital asset management and even running your own photography business.
