An in-depth, jargon-free guide to the pros and cons of this pioneering system

The Four Thirds system is an innovative, open standard for digital SLR cameras that is designed to optimize their size, performance, compatibility, and extendibility. Standardization of lens mounts enables photographers to mix and match interchangeable lenses and camera bodies from different makers. Because lenses traditionally optimized for film cameras don't always perform well with the digital camera's image sensor (the device that captures light in the form of electrical signals) the Four Thirds system, introduced by Olympus and Kodak, was the first digital-dedicated design. This authoritative guide from professional photographer David Taylor includes reviews of popular Four Thirds and Micro Four Thirds cameras as well as advice on choosing lenses and accessories, guidance on exposure and flash, and practical tips on lighting and camera care.

Daniel B. ★★★★★

The paper quality is surprisingly good for a guide this detailed, and the breakdown of each camera system makes it easy to find what I need without flipping through endless pages.

David C. ★★★★★

The CD-ROM and printed pages work well together for quick reference, and Taylor breaks down the Four Thirds system in a way that finally makes sense to me. I've been shooting for years and still picked up a few useful tricks from the expanded tips.

Victoria N. ★★★★★

The included CD-ROM is a nice bonus, making it easy to reference the exposure guide while out shooting. I finally feel like I understand how to get the most out of my camera's sensor.
