The Digital Photographer's Book - Best of

Scott Kelby has hand-picked the best, most useful techniques from the five volumes of his highly successful series, The Digital Photography Book, and compiled this Best Of selection. The secret to the best-selling book series of all time lies in Scott's instinctive ability to make the complicated simple, and the methods you thought were too difficult for me to master, easy to master. As if he were a friend, Scott tells you which buttons to press and which settings to choose to take the kind of photos you've always wanted, the kind you knew you had inside you but didn't know the secret to (and that's exactly what you're about to learn). The volumes in the series are loved by photographers all over the world (they've been translated into countless languages) because they're not a theoretical publication overloaded with confusing jargon and detailed concepts. This book tells you only what you need to know. It's a show-me-how-it-is-not-tell-me-it type of book, and the volume you're holding in your hands is the best of the five volumes in the series, all updated with the latest information, of course. On every page of every chapter, you'll find a single thought, a single method, a single do-it-now idea. BONUS CHAPTER! As a special surprise, Scott has a brand new chapter for those who are switching from their cell phone camera to their first SLR camera (this is why so many beginner photographers have so many questions). Featuring over 200 popular professional tricks, Scott has designed this book to help you shoot like a pro right away. There's no other book like it, and you can be sure you'll love it!
