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. 89514 2 9 2006 The Digital Photography Book total:431|5:170|4:185|3:60|2:15|1:2| 431 1797 701 108 4 2 false false Sat Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Sun Oct 07 08:00:54 -0700 2007 Sun Oct 07 08:00:54 -0700 2007 more...]]> 4 1 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 22 11:46:00 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 22 11:55:56 -0800 2009 more...]]> 5 1 false false Thu May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed May 07 10:54:47 -0700 2008 Sun Jun 08 22:15:29 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 1 false false Sat Jan 03 12:03:09 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 03 14:26:57 -0800 2009
