 Must have book if you want great photos October 8, 2008
This is a wonderful book. It was given to us as a gift after our baby was born and although we didn't have time to read the entire book, with a new baby and all, just skimming the book helped us to improve the quality of our photos. All of our friends ask us how we get such amazing photos of our baby and we always end up letting them borrow this book. We are so glad we received it.
Great book, but watch out for Amazon "bargain" sticker & remainder mark April 11, 2008
This is the book I wish I'd had when my son was a baby, and it's been my standard baby-shower gift for several years. However, I just ordered another from Amazon and discovered what "[BARGAIN PRICE]" means on the Amazon listing--there's a big sticker on the back of the book (which is virtually impossible to remove cleanly) saying it's an Amazon Bargain Book, as well as a thick black remainder line across the bottom edge of all the pages. Translation: this is not a gift-quality book.
I was really annoyed to see this, as I needed it today and had even paid extra for faster shipping. When I went back to the Amazon listing, I found some small print explaining that "Bargain books are new but could include a small mark from the publisher and an Amazon.com price sticker identifying them as such." I'd guess lots of people don't notice this. I'll be writing to Amazon to urge them to make this info more prominent--like saying [BARGAIN PRICE--MAY HAVE "BARGAIN BOOK" STICKER AND REMAINDER MARK]. Meanwhile, if you want a new-quality book, be sure to read the fine print! (There is a new-quality version of the book available for about $5.50 more--I wish I hadn't been in such a hurry, as I might have noticed that and tried to see what the difference was.)
Baby Gift March 26, 2008
This book has become my standard "new baby" gift. Parents love it, use it, and come out with pictures they'll enjoy for a lifetime.
Great gift! March 11, 2008
This is the perfect book for new parents. It provides basic tips for the everyday parent who simply desires better photos of their child.
A very nice read + illustration February 25, 2008
Though the book was written with film photography in mind, the principles/tips apply to the digital world as well. Most tips can be easily applied without buying any expensive equipments.
The illustrative comparison of good vs. bad pictures is very helpful. For example, it showed the same setting taken using flash vs. natural window light. I especially enjoyed the section on how to find such ideal light conditions around the house.
This book discusses concepts/tips without using technical terms like aperture, shutter speed, exposure, and flash ratio, etc.
