C olour photography has never been so well catered for and so easy to do as it is now technically . The wave of improvements in colour films in recent years have brought high picture quality to millions of photo- graphers with film speeds that allow handheld shooting in most of the popular picture situations , even indoors by available light . The actual chemistry of the film has been improved and simplified so that processing colour at home re- quires no specialist knowledge . The electronic revolution in camera design has helped to automate a great deal of the operation , freeing the photographer to concentrate on the image .
that This , in fact , is the most important result of all these improvements they have cleared away a lot of the detail and inconvenience involved in the technical process of photography . Anything that makes it easier to use a camera must be good for photography , but only as long as photographers do not rely on the technology to make the picture . There is no mechanical substi- tute for good ideas and a visual sense of what looks interesting or attractive . So , with modern equipment and films more than ever , it is important to strike a balance between what the camera will do and what your eye has to see .
This book covers the essentials of colour photography , from equipment to the principles of composing with colour . Colour film processing is now so well standardized that a single type of kit will take care of nearly any film that you care to use . Certainly , it may be easier to drop an exposed roll into a laboratory for processing and printing , but one of the great pleasures in photography is to take care of the entire process , from seeing the picture through to the finished product - a slide , or a print to hang on the wall . Craftsmanship has always been an essential part photography , and being able to keep your hands on every part of the process extends your control over the image .
BELOW Although advances in camera technology have taken much of the toil out of good photography , there is still no replacement for a great idea . In this instance , exposing for the rich sunlight has created a fine silhouette .
RIGHT A thorough knowledge of the technical aspects of photography is vital in producing good colour work . However , when all is said and done , it is the human eye and brain that judge whether a particular scene is attractive and worthy of preserving on film .
