The Art of Photography (Digital Photography Book 2)
"I like how the author builds quite high expectations in the introduction of the book, and manages to fulfill them fully throughout the book."

"I've been photographing for years since first SLR in 1960s and yet I found much of interest and some I was unfamiliar with. I especially appreciated the clear, concise presentation."
" Even us 'know-it-alls' are surprised by the information that cleared-up some uncertain items that had existed too long."
"As a former photography student who learned almost nothing over a two year period, I can now say that I fully understand the terminology and possess the technical skill to take better photographs and possibly revisit my dream of becoming a sports photographer."
Many people are walking around with expensive cameras that they barely know how to use and others are missing great photo opportunities because they have been misinformed by well-meaning friends.
This book is based on the premise that a solid understanding of photographic equipment results in a faster learning curve and better photos. The technology is actually quite simple when it is broken down and clearly explained.
Without an understanding of cameras, you are at the mercy of others in all your buying decisions. You will only scratch the surface of your camera's capabilities until you take on its manual settings.

Which file format to use when editing photos.
Which file format to use when sharing photos.
How to select a lens for your DSLR camera.
How to properly adjust exposure.
Why a zoom lens can be a very good investment.
