David Busch's Mastering Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens Photography / Edition 1

by David D. Busch

Overview

Mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras are taking the market by storm! Smaller and lighter than dSLRs, these cameras use more compact lenses and accessories, and can be easily adapted to use optics and gear originally designed for conventional dSLR cameras—so you can downsize your kit and continue using much of your favorite equipment. Many mirrorless ILC models are also loaded with popular features like built-in GPS, Wi-Fi, touch screens, high-speed shooting, and other innovations. DAVID BUSCH'S MASTERING MIRRORLESS INTERCHANGEABLE LENS PHOTOGRAPHY is the comprehensive guide to photography for mirrorless interchangeable lens camera users. If you're comfortable with the basics of using your camera and are looking for more advanced, in-depth information on mirrorless interchangeable lens camera concepts and techniques, this book will help you expand your knowledge of the many new capabilities and improvements that are now standard on these cameras. Suitable for both professionals and serious hobbyists alike, this book goes beyond the standard coverage offered in most general camera books, exploring features and techniques specific to mirrorless interchangeable lens camera photography. From initial discussions on hardware selection to professional-level tips and techniques for sports and action shots, people and nature photography, close-ups and more, this is the all-inclusive guide that mirrorless ILC photographers need for refining their shooting skills.
