Book: Advanced Photography or Basic Photography

[jlw82]

Hi there!

Im going to develop my knowledge. Going to order some books. I dont realy know wich boks to buy. But You maybe can help me in my choise.

Thinking of these books:
Advanced Photography
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...208026-5727656

Basic Photography
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...208026-5727656

Both written by: Michael Langford.

The advanced books seems to have better content, but I dont realy feelI have the basics. Maybe I have? Have heard that the basic book is used by some photography school. And Im realy not good as a photography student that have been study the subject in years.

Have also been looking at these books:

The Perfect Exposure by Jim Zuckerman
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

But I have already read a book about exposure. This one:
Understanding Exposure: How to Shoot Great Photographs with a Film or Digital Camera by Bryan Peterson - http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...208026-5727656 A good book with alot of tips. But is the book with Zuckerman more advanced?

So guys, wich book(s) does fit me best? I realy want to educate myself in phorography and taking better pictures. I know that the best training is to be out and taking pictures. But I want books to read how I going to get those pics that will be n the frontmagazine of national geographic.

Help me out please...

Why not get all of them since none of them seem to really overlap each other?

Buy them used. its almost half the price... and well, its a book, not a lens or anything. As long as its not ripped up or wet or anything, it should be ok.
