Description
The fastest way to get started with photography. Everything you need is just a click away.
A camera didn't make a great picture any more than a typewriter wrote a great novel. - Peter Adams
Elements of Photography (EoP) is the most comprehensive app on the marketplace on photography. Instead of bogging down with a huge amount of text or long boring videos, EoP uses targeted small chunks of text backed by beautiful full screen HD photos.
EoP includes chapters, tools, quiz, and tips – designed in a way to help amateur and budding photographers understand the elements of photography and not let the camera become a technological barrier between the cameraman and the subject. The tools and tips are always close at hand for reference. The quiz section is included to check your understanding of the photography concepts. Chapters are organized with a smooth inclination making it easy for the absolute beginner to understand the basics of photography. Starting from the very basic topics like focal length, shutter speed etc. to more advanced topics like metering, exposure triangle, and flash photography. EoP is the complete reference available right at your figure tip.
Designed using special dynamic content scaling technology – it seamlessly works on different screen resolution and sizes. From phones to tablets: you will get a uniform user experience.
Stunning HD graphics on supporting devices.

Ratings and Reviews
What a nice surprise
I am considering myself reasonably knowledgable about photography, yet I am surprised to find out that with every lesson (even with quite basic ones) I would discover something I didn't know. Lessons themselves are well composed and easy to follow. I like the fact that this app does not rely on videos for content delivery, instead it gives you examples of photos and you can play with virtual camera settings and see the result.
One small negative is that app does not change orientation as i turn the iPad around - makes it harder to use sometimes. But this is a very minor issue with otherwise excellent app. Thank you guys
Great memory jogger
Great little app. It's written clearly and it's informative. I'm not a beginner to photography but found it helpful and I learnt a few things along the way. It'll work for beginners and those with intermediate skills. I'll use it on shoots just to check the the odd thing now and again. One or two 'empty' pages that need sorting along with a few minor grammatical errors. Happy to rate this high and I hope it's developed further.
Impressed with this app
I have been enjoying amateur dslr photography for over 2 years & have learnt quite a lot in that time, but I've been impressed to find that this app is full of useful tips that I haven't come across before.
The chapters / lessons are clear, easy to follow & well laid out & I really like the accompanying example photos that are displayed with varying settings to illustrate the key points of each lesson.
At only £2.29 to buy all the extra chapters & the test quiz etc as well, the full package is a bargain!
Yet to test the DoF calculator, as I'm still working my way through the extra chapters, but so far I'm impressed & think the app's been well worth it just for the lessons & accompanying tips!
