 Good book for beginners, but not what I wanted February 26, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book is like a photography 101 class, with a little bit of information on DSLR's , digital file formats, and digital enhancement. If you already understand aperture, ISO, shutter speeds, basic composition principles, depth of field, etc, you do not need this book. I would get this book for a novice photographer who wanted to generally improve their understanding of basic photography principles.
That being said, the book is easy to read with pretty good images to demonstrate the lessons, and it presents all concepts well. I do think it would be beneficial to someone who has n ever used a camera in manual mode. The "assignments" at the end of each lesson would be especially useful for getting more comfortable with the camera.
Just not what I needed; still a good book for the right level of user.

Bought this and his other book on Nature Photography together, which I recommend doing. An excellant deal and both were well worth the investment. You can't get much more clear and easy to understand than this. Very down to earth written and everything is so well explained and simply put. It's almost like your sitting down over a cup off coffee with a good friend. I learned more from these books than any other material that I've read. AND from the first day started to notice a big improvement in my photos. A must read for anyone that is serious about photography! Book also provides a link to his website which is worth looking into.

great January 19, 2008
This is a great book for people who are wanting to move beyond 'pointing and clicking' ... very informative, practical advice - with assignments to help reinforce what you are learning each step of the way. Highly recommended!

Lots of good information from selecting equipment into what does RAW, TIFF and JPEG mean and what is the advantage and disadvantage of each, into the creating aspect of seeing and capturing the photos you want. I bought it for a friend and she is enthralled.
