Digital Infrared Photography
webmaster@oreillynet.com (Cyrill Harnischmacher) Tue, 02 Sep 2008 16:18:01 -0800
To record the "invisible light " has always been an intriguing and fascinating experiment. The infrared part of the light spectrum is outside the range of what we can see. With a digital camera, we can record just this "invisible light " and block the "visible " part. This results in unusual but often beautiful renderings of otherwise fairly common scenes. since the 1960 's artists have experimented with analog infrared photography, as seen on album covers of Jimi Hendrix and Frank Zappa. This compact guide to infrared photography shows the beauty of infrared imagery but also teaches how to shoot these images with your digital camera. The book provides the basic theoretical background, some information on cameras, filters and equipment, and lots of guidance on how to do infrared photography. It is a beautifully designed and illustrated book, the right companion for the aspiring photographer wanting to explore new photographic territories.

webmaster@oreillynet.com (Dawn Griffiths) Thu, 28 Aug 2008 09:17:50 -0800

Photographic Multishot Techniques
webmaster@oreillynet.com (Jürgen Gulbins, Rainer Gulbins) Mon, 01 Sep 2008 00:16:35 -0800
Photographers are just beginning to realize the potential of HDRI. Now, using similar, even newer techniques based on a bracketed series of exposures, it is possible to go beyond high dynamic range: Photographers can increase resolution for ultrasharp, detailed images, or they can extend the depth of field in a way that was never before possible. Photographic Multishot Techniques provides a thorough introduction and a hands-on guide to these various techniques. Using a series of example images, the authors explain and illustrate the use of each technique in great detail. Included are lessons on HDRI, superresolution, focus stacking, and stitching. Moreover, the reader will learn how to effectively combine these techniques. Throughout the book, the authors use tools such as Photoshop, PhotoAcute, Photomatix, FDRTools, CombineZM, and Helicon Focus to illustrate the workflow with step-by-step instructions. Many of these tools (either full or test versions) are found on the CD that is included with the book. Learning these techniques will help to expand the repertoire and improve the photographic skills of the professional as well as the advanced amateur photographer.
