Does any one know any books that cover the way to overcome the differences...?

Question

between shooting with digital SLR and shooting with a 35mm SLR, ie: the way the digital picks up light.

Like an in depth Photographers manual: ive just noticed some differences in digital when i switched from film.

Answer 1

Digital is more a kin to slides, chromes, transparencies...whatever you wish to call them. They expose the same way.

Answer 2

Exposure is more critical with digital since it doesn't yet have the latitude of film. Perki88 is correct in comparing it to slide film.

These books may be of help:

"The Digital Photographer's Guide to Exposure" by Peter Cope

"Understanding Exposure: How to Shoot Great Photographs With A Film or Digital Camera" by Bryan Peterson

"Hands-On Digital Photography" by George Schaub

"How Digital Photography Works, Second Edition" by Ron White

I am also a firm believer in reading photography magazines. My personal favorite is Shutterbug.
