 Was a good choice! December 22, 2007

I have the Scott Kelby book for CS2 and I was debating between this and the Scott Kelby for CS3. Glad I chose this. I am kind of in the learning mode for the PhotoShop and Scott's book though good, lacked some of the basics that this book covers well. I loved the videos on the DVD which takes you through some of the techniques also given in the book - but as they say "a picture is worth a thousand words" - so the video should be worth more - it is!
Highly recommended for beginners as well as advance level photographers/enthusiasts.

I am a new Photoshop user and thought I was getting a Photoshop CS3 starter book, like the title states. But on the SECOND page they say to use Adobe Gamma to calibrate my monitor. After 45 mins of looking and searching, I find, at Adobe, that they don't use Gamma in CS3. What a crock. Now I don't know if I can trust the rest of the book. Looks like they wrote a book for an older version and failed to update anything but the cover.

I received this text a few weeks ago. Still a novice at PS, it has been helpful. Still working with using the DVD. The text is concise. I still feel there could be better definitions into the purpose of various editing tools rather than simply instructing in their use. However, I am just getting started and perhaps that may unfold
Great book, easy to use November 6, 2007

I really enjoy the way this book is laid out, and the way in which it teaches. The accompanying DVD is also very helpful.
 The DVD is no good. October 28, 2007

The book is all right, but not outstanding. The DVD would not play. I emailed the publisher about this, and received a reply that suggested I should uninstall the latest version of Quicktime and use an older version. Now why would I want to do that?
Amazon accepted return and gave me a refund. Amazon is a great place to shop.
