BTW I do like his point about framing to allow room for adding some text over the image. (Yes, he shoots Nikon, poor soul, but 99% of the book is equally relevant to us Canon-o-philes...)

(He also likes the theory I use for fast-moving real-world photography - shoot first, crop later... gotta like people who agree with you ;-)

Oh, and it's 237 pages, so a lengthy read. Plus I'm guessing the image on page 130 looks the way it does largely due to the use of some iffy Nikon glass... the guy should really upgrade to some lighter shade of grey lenses :-)

Actually the best thing to come from this is if people compare Canon cameras' pre-shot histograms with whatever raw latitude you get (i.e. are blown highlights in the histogram actually blown in a raw file within X stops in camera Y). See the last paragraph on page 29 (again remembering he shoots Nikon).
