DESCRIPTION:
"Not really about zone system but about luminance masks" according to Les Sparks. In spite of what the title says, this book is about luminance masks not the zone system. The author provides a set of Photoshop actions to generate a set of masks that cover the various zones of the zone system. In keeping with the ideas of the zone system the masks are separated by a factor of 2 in exp. "Fisher: The DIgital Zone System" according to Marshal Shlafer. So many books on the Zone system, most rightfully targeted on black and white sheet film (where each neg can be exposed AND processed individually to optimize the exposure and print); and most giving an extraordinarily complex description of Adams' methods. Applying the zone system to digital isn't as s. "Photo techniques" according to WRD. Interesting photo techniques.
This makes the DZS a powerful tool for converting color images to black and white. The Digital Zone System (DZS) is an innovative methodology for editing digital images that mimics the Zone System created by Adams. You will also gain tremendous control over how color is adjusted in your images by learning to isolate and adjust color in specific targeted areas. The book is richly illustrated with step-by-step screenshots and stunning example images that show the benefits of the Digital Zone System over commonly used digital editing methods. Once mastered, the DZS will allow you to produce a higher level of quality in your images, at a faster pace and with greater ease than ever before.. There is an ongoing debate among photographers whether digital photography processes will ever be able to reach the pinnacle of image quality and tonality achieved
