Not dissappointedBy Mary BedyI have read many photography "how to" books and many of them are vague; poorly written or written as the authors personal showcase. I even bought a nature photography book once where the author didnt record the shutter speed; ISO setting or aperture for any of her sample shots because she said she would not have had time to write the book if she had recorded all that information. Can you imagine how useless that book was? (It was written about 35mm film). I also dislike "how to" photography books where the author takes half the book explaining how to fix your photos in editing software instead of getting good shots in the first place.None of this (to me) annoying peripheral stuff appears in any book I have bought written by Jim Miotke; and in this case Jim Miotke and Kerry Drager. I already knew 95 percent of the stuff in this book (I consider myself to be an advanced amateur); but I had forgotten a lot of it; and got several "oh yeah; I should try that" moments out of this book. The text is well written; the book is well organized and if you have never extensively studied photography; this book will definitely help change your snap shots into art. If you have studied photography; you will still get several good "ah ha!" moments. Excellent book for improving your photography.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. WONDERFUL;WONDERFUL;WONDERFULBy Old DudeGreat book to learn from I have a lot of the books in the series. I have used the books to learn photography. The format is very good I like the fact that at the end of each lesson you have an assignment or two to do. The books are easy to understand not complicated written for the average joe on the street and filed with lots of encouragement. The books are written by professionals. so the person knows the subject they are writing about. I use the books also for reference so dont get ride of them when you finish it. I have been using the book for the past 3 years. ( Amphoto books are wonderful) 3 years a go I wanted to learn Photography not just take pictures so I tried to find a class. could not. But with this book and the others in the series I put together a course of study for myself to take me to were I want to be.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Perfect and easy guide for DSLR photography beginners!!!By G. YoungIf you are wanting to get into photography; buy yourself a DSLR camera and THIS book. It explains everything a beginner must know. All fundamentals of what makes a great picture; the right conditions; how to use which settings in the camera itself; how to work around tricky environments etc. It points out "photography" rules and explains in easy language. Also very helpful all the many images with descriptions and statements of which settings were used etc.I learned a LOT from this book and recommended it to a couple of friends who ended up borrowing and buying it as well. You are not wasting your money on this book.
