Learn B&W from Zone VI's Fred Picker

Calumet has remastered and re-released Fred Picker's (founder of Zone VI) three important B&W photo videos from the 1990s, Printing; The Camera; and The Negative: Exposure and Development and is offering the DVD w/ all three for $9.99 this week to celebrate Ansel Adams' 111th birthday.
Picker was an enormously important figure in the revival of interest in B&W, large format and slow photography. He had very strong opinions about how things should be done, and while he might not have always produced the most exciting work, he was right about the best ways to print, develop and shoot. 
Highly recommended.
