About this product

Product Information

Scott Kelby, the man who changed the "digital darkroom" forever with his groundbreaking, #1 bestselling, award-winning book The Photoshop Book for Digital Photographers, now tackles the most important side of digital photography--how to take pro-quality shots using the same tricks today's top digital pros use (and it's easier than you'd think). This entire book is written with a brilliant premise, and here's how Scott describes it: "If you and I were out on a shoot, and you asked me, 'Hey, how do I get this flower to be in focus, but I want the background out of focus?' I wouldn't stand there and give you a lecture about aperture, exposure, and depth of field. In real life, I'd just say, 'Get out your telephoto lens, set your f/stop to f/2.8, focus on the flower, and fire away.' You d say, 'OK,' and you'd get the shot. That's what this book is all about. A book of you and I shooting, and I answer the questions, give you advice, and share the secrets I've learned just like I would with a friend, without all the technical explanations and without all the techno-photo-speak." This isn't a book of theory it isn't full of confusing jargon and detailed concepts: this is a book of which button to push, which setting to use, when to use them, and nearly two hundred of the most closely guarded photographic "tricks of the trade" to get you shooting dramatically better-looking, sharper, more colorful, more professional-looking photos with your digital camera every time you press the shutter button. Here's another thing that makes this book different: each page covers just one trick, just one single concept that makes your photography better. Every time you turn the page, you'll learn another pro setting, another pro tool, another pro trick to transform your work from snapshots into gallery prints. There's never been a book like it, and if you're tired of taking shots that look "OK," and if you're tired of looking in photography magazines and thinking, "Why don't my shots look like that?" then this is the book for you.

  • Great Beginning Now Want More

    Excellent book very well presented. I am a 40 year experianced still photographer. I resisted the "digital revolution. this book helped me get over the resistance. It is a good "how to" on photography book. I just wish it had EVEN more dealing with things specifically digital. I hope the author will more fully explore in depth in a futher book things are brought up in passing Some of these are the full use of the software Lighroom and organizing your digitial files for better processing & retrival. The investement in the non digital was enormous. It would be nice to intergrate some of it into the digital world. I hope a future " DIGITAL" book will touch on ways of intergrating some of one's older (specifically Nikon) lenses and flashes (SB 26 series or the Q flash) used ...

  • Digital Photography Book by Scott Kelby - Great Intro!

    At a professional photographer's recommendation, I purchased The Digital Photography Book by Scott Kelby, Vol. 2. It was such an incredibly excellent book for someone wanting to learn professional photography methods in an easy to understand and apply format that I immediately wanted the prequel-Vol. 1. Both are excellent books, and I rate them much better than the comparable Idiot's guide to digital photography, Digital Photo. for dummies, and so on. This book does not spend any time telling you the technicalities or details, it simply tells you what button to push, and what technique to employ to achieve what you want in a photo. No memorizing numbers or triangles. He does recommend some equipment, which I appreciated, in photography some things are you get what you pay for, and ...

  • If you want a fast way to make better digital photos

    Scott Kelby has found his niche and that is writing books to help the new breed of digital photographers improve their craft. His first book, The Digital Photography Book, is filled with useful and well presented tips to improve one's images. This book is excellent for those who shoot DSLR's BUT, it is very useful for those who shoot the smaller digital cameras as well. he presents his ideas simply, in a single page format, without a lot of supurfluose information. His equipment recommendations are soundly in line with what he is trying to teach the reader because sometimes it DOES take the right equipment to get the shot. The only draw back for some might be his sense of humor. Since I have and enjoy a dry, sarcastic sense of humor, I found him entertaining to read as well. For those who ...

  • Another Kelby Gem

    I confess - I am a Kelby junkie. I like Scott Kelby's books, even his lame (and he admits to it) humor. I own several of his books, because I like his concise, cut-to-the-chase style. The reader doesn't have to wade through all sorts of extraneous text in order to complete an exercise. In The Photoshop CS2 Book, I learned a great deal in a short time by following his clear, to-the-point instructions. It's the same with his Digital Photography book. Its short chapters are easy to read, and packed with information that will be easy to remember. He covers equipment, accessories, shooting technique, camera settings, and some specific chapters on how to duplicate professional looking shots. He does focus quite a bit on portrait and wedding photography, but you can pick and choose ...
