Digital Photography for Dummies.......2007-03-23
This book is huge and covers most anything one can think of on this topic. I bought it for my husband who has recently acquired a digital camera. He hasn't begun to even scratch the surface but has already found it helpful and knows it will as he tries new things.
Great book for beginner through expert.......2007-01-17
I'm a beginning digital photographer and not particularly techno- proficient, yet I've been able to understand the information in the early chapters of the book. As I get more proficient and curious, I will be able to delve into the later chapters and learn about photoediting, etc. This book really represents 7 different digital camera for Dummies books.
I got this book for the great price of $9.67 from CBC-Sales, and it is worth every penny. If you are a beginner in digital photography who hopes to increase your photography skills, then this book is for you.
This book has everything!.......2007-01-06
This book is a delight for me, an amateur photographer! It is very well written and has lots of great illustrations. The author covers complex information with basic, easy to understand explanations and subtle humor make it more entertaining. Along with useful information about expensive photography equipment for best results, I really appreciate that he offers simple and inexpensive means to achieve the same professional results.
7 in 1 has it all. A total encyclopedia in one........2006-02-19
This is truly an excllent reference book. I was in the process of buying a scanner and upgrading a digital camera. It was helpful on both counts.
A great reference as well as instruction book.
Only one suggestion I would make to the author when he updates.
Explain the pro's and con's about 3 or 4 in one machines. For instance is the scanning as good as a stand alone scanner.
All in all a wonderful investment. Makes my other books on the subject obsolete.
I'm using this as a textbook in my classes........2004-05-15
I teach digital photography at a community college, both for college credit and in evening adult education classes, and have found this book to be the perfect textbook for my beginner and intermediate courses. The first Overview book is about 82 pages long, and provides a good introduction to digital photography. My students learn a little about digital equipment, how to acquire photos, do simple editing, organize them, and make prints. I generally either skip the second book or assign it for extra credit, because it talks about choosing a camera and accessories, setting up a computer, and working with printers and scanners.
The Taking Great Pictures chapters in the third book are the core of my curriculum for both the beginner and intermediate classes, as the content is easy to understand, explains photographic techniques clearly, and can be applied by any digital photographer. The beginner classes simply receive less challenging picture taking assignments, as they work with composition, close-ups, portraits, and sports photography. They also get a lot of use out of the section on scenic photography, as the landscapes here are spectacular.
The beginner classes stop when they finish the fourth book on the Basics of Image Editing. The more advanced image editing chapters, which use Adobe Photoshop Elements, are reserved for the intermediate classes. I do put both groups to work learning to restore old photos, because everyone seems to enjoy this.
All in all I have found this book to be a wonderful learning tool, and like it better than traditional textbooks for teaching digital photography.

Elements is a Surprisingly Strong Package.......2006-07-03
You might consider Photoshop Elements to be Photoshop CA Lite. The price for Elements is very light when compared with Photoshop. Checking Amazon's price for Photoshop CS - $575.99, and Photoshop Elements is $84.99. In my view, probably wrong, I consider that Elements is what Photoshop was a couple of revisions ago. It is probably not really the several year old code, but Photoshop CS code that has had a few features removed. If you're a full fledged professional whose livelyhood depends on software, buy the high priced version. If you're really only an advanced (even very advanced) amateur, save the money. Elements has grown so that it is really quire powerful.
This book is written with the assumption that you know very little about digital photograph editing. It starts with the very simple, i.e. installing and making Elements work on your PC. From there is progresses to every more sophisticated, ever more complex techniques.
It's an interesting cross between a tutorial, step-by-step book and a reference book. If you're starting out on Elements, this would be an excellent place to begin your journey.
