  abstract: This Field Guide provides a concise summary of the photographic imaging chain and explains the connections between the science and photographic practice. The book begins by summarizing the fundamental optics required for understanding photographic formulae. This is followed by optics-based sections covering topics such as focusing, framing, depth of field and photometric exposure. The middle part of the book describes the relationship between the photometric exposure distribution at the sensor plane and the resulting digital raw data produced by the camera, and the basics of the subsequent steps required to convert the raw data into an output color image designed for viewing on a display. Later sections concentrate on photographic practice, covering topics such as lighting and strategies for obtaining a suitable exposure. The final sections of the book cover the more technical topics relating to camera image quality.
