Digital Photography Book, Volume 3, The Right now


This book picks up where Vol 2 stops. He breaks it down and teaches you those tips to enable you get those shots that you see in magazines. It's like you are being taught by a friend. It may not work for everyone but it does work for me. His books are easy and pleasant to read and understand.
Overall Volume 3 is a good book and you will learn new tricks. If you enjoyed Scott Kelby's other books you will enjoy this book.Get more detail about Digital Photography Book, Volume 3, The.

Purchase Digital Photography Book, The


After purchasing a high-end digital SLR I wanted to get advice from pros so I would not be frustrated or disappointed. This was the first book I bought on topic, and will quickly go to the donation bin and another book will take its place.

The author includes a few good hints, but nothing that really shows what you can do with even basic digital cameras. There are some situation recipes, but nothing satisfying about the exposure triangle - what I believe to be the real key to satisfying photography. The interspersed nuggets of wisdom are embedded in a writing style and humor that was offputting, so it left me feeling that I hadn't gotten a return on this purchase.

I just read the back cover and it clearly says "User Level: Beginner" and that is a good caveat. Even with that, there is much more he could have included to tutor folks starting out on this hobby/profession. Read this in a library and put it back on the shelf. If you invest in a book, look elsewhere.Get more detail about Digital Photography Book, The.
