- Digital Photography at its best!
- I love Scott Kelby books!
He writes in a manner the beignner and intermediate photographer can understand.
He reads my thoughts as we go along and answers my questions the moment they pop into my head!
His wit at times does get a bit monotonous IF you are reading for facts.
If so, then just skip the veryu first page of each chapter.
If you find you need a bit of comic relief, then read the whole book.
It is a book I will constantly be refereing to til I am an old hand at photography.
Don't forget to buy volume one as it is invaluable! - 2008-08-25, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Digital Photography s.Kelby
- This is the second book in the series. Everything he says is practical and help/ed me a lot. However, I think he will write until book #10 or who knows #20. And you would spend US$200.00 to have the whole collection.
So I quit now! Why he does not issue such a book of, lets say 500 pages, and charge us one time only!!
Otherwise it would be TOO Expensive for me. - 2008-08-22, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Only decent
- This book has some good (but basic) information. I recommend it for beginners only. Kelby's tone gets very old very fast, despite his knowledge.

- Useful advice when you want to SHOOT not READ
- Instead of struggling to bridge the theory of photography to practice, Mr. Kelby just jumps in with examples and says, "here's the picture, here's how I got the picture."
While his humor is..quirky, the advice was easy to follow and opened up things to me that had not dawned on me before. I'm an advanced hobbyist, who'd like to go pro, so these books are a great thing to me. I don't have years of background behind me and most of my other books did not adequately cover where digital technology has changed some fundamental aspect of photography.
Lighting is lighting, but the newer cameras can do things the old ones could simply not do. - 2008-08-14, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
