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!
Great guide for someone thinking of going digital SLR December 13, 2007

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.
Excellent beginners guide December 1, 2007

I read this along with Scott Kelby's "The Digital Photography Book". They complement each other very well. Kelby's book just tells you what to do without very much about the principles behind the recommendations (which is actually one of its strengths). This book, on the other hand, discusses the fundamentals of photography and the principles of light, exposure, color, composition, etc. The illustrations are informative and high quality, as are the example photographs. There are even little assignments at the end of chapters so you can try to immediately apply what you've (hopefully) learned. It's important to realize that it's a book for beginners. If you know all about f-stops, ISO, aperture, depth of field, rule of thirds, JPEG vs. TIFF, etc then you will likely be disappointed. But if you need a place to start, I don't think you can go wrong with this book. Highly recommended.
An Exxcellent Resource for Digital Photography Beginners October 26, 2007
The book is easy to read and has assignments for you to do! It will get you out of auto mode and into other modes, such as Program AE and manual. I highly recommend it for those who want to get serious about their photography.
Amazing buy October 19, 2007

I think this book is really great. It is photography 101. Wonderful for starters in the field.
