Great Digital photography Buy March 10, 2006
I bought this book with an Idea I might learn quickly some of the attributes and controls of My Fuji9500 and I have to say its a great help. It was worth the wait and I would recommend it to anybody with a Digital Camera, I even found the answer to a "Ghost" effect a friend experienced ,a question that has baffelled a lot of Amateur Experts. I would definitly say that this book should be supplied with every Digital Camera, it is a Great Purchase and wont ever be lent to friends, they can buy their own.
the best for digital photography buffs September 15, 2005
If your in the market for an all around excellent book on everything from picture composition, calibrating the color on your monitor, using photo software and anything else you may need, this is the one for you.
Tremendously Helpful April 28, 2005
This book will be tremedously helpful to the beginning or intermediate digital photographer. It covers taking and editing images and explains complicated procedures clearly and concisely. It is an attractive book, copiously illustrated in color to make its points. I bought it based on two reviews (thank you, reviewers) and I wanted to add my positive comments. You can't go wrong with this book for adding useful information to your knowledge of digital photography and it is certainly priced right!

This book is a great way to start using your cameras full potential in the least amount of time! Plus it's in full color. I find black and white photography books to be nearly useless! It guides you through a cameras features and helps you select a camera or an upgrade but moves quickly into how to take the best shots.
This book is heavily illustrated so I could see the difference that a white point setting had or the difference of a low or high f-stop setting. Mr. Sahlin explains with pictures how to setup your shoots, how to get the best portrait or landscape, motion (waterfalls and sports) how to correct and a ton of other things. There are a lot of tips and cautions along the way. If you want to put your digital camera to full use then get this book...I don't know how they can sell it for so little and teach such complex settings in a way anyone can understand!
Very Helpful December 28, 2004

I picked up this book a couple of weeks ago along with 3 other books on digital photography and one on Photoshop. I am a professional desiger and I just bought a decent digital camera to be able to shoot my own photos instead of having to hire a photographer whose hourly rate is very expensive. Out of the 5 books I purchased I have to say that this Quickstep book was the easiest to read and got me up and running taking pictures immediately. I was very intimidate by this camera at first (Canon EOS ) but this book was the most helpful in explaining really complex techniques in a simple way. The other books, although helpful, were a little wordy for someone who wants to get down and start working right away. Rick Sammon's Complete Guide to Digital Photography is good too but dwells way too much on things in Photoshop and there are a million Photshop books all the same out there. To put my 2 cents in, I highly recommend this Digital Photography Quicksteps book..
