3 out of 5 stars Has so much potential   May 21, 2007
 7 out of 7 found this review helpful

This book does have great information! There is no doubt about that. If you are a beginnner to digital, this would not be a bad book to start with.

With that said, I wish the book had been set up better. It is all black and white which doesn't work well when you are trying to see the difference between various settings. In the middle of the book is a colored section with the example photos in full color, but flipping to that all the time is a true pain in the bum!

I did return this book back to Amazon due to my disappointment.

For THE BEST book on producing high quality images, I would recommend Understanding Exposure by Bryan Peterson.



4 out of 5 stars Great book for review and tips   April 13, 2007

It's a great book for people just getting into Digital Photography or switching from film to digital. She explains things very well. I like that she gives her own real life examples and tips on how the pros do it. She also gives you ways to save on equipment.

This book allowed me to review things that I learned and have forgotten and at the same time gave me new ideas.

It sits on my shelf more than I read it David Busch books are way better than this one.

Like so many authors, this one tries to cover every aspect of the subject. In so doing, she tends to give subjects I am especially interested in short shrift. But, it is the finest book I have seen on this emerging subject of digital photography. I was not disappointed.

Julie is the author of Digital Photography for Dummies, and she really knows her stuff. If you're beyond the dummy stage and want to learn more, this is the place to start.
