5 out of 5 stars Digital Photography for Dummies 8 Books in 1   September 2, 2008
This book is great. All I expected and more. Price was more than reasonable.


4 out of 5 stars wealth of photography information   July 30, 2008
This is a very thick book. But it is a wealth of information on digital photography. You can use it as a reference or read the entire book. Most books you get on photography are outdated, and have not got much information on Digital Photography. this an up to date one.


1 out of 5 stars Disappointing   July 2, 2008

I found this book particularly annoying in part because it continually suggests the reader can learn MORE about a given topic of interest by buying another book by the author. It blows off Mac and I found it a waste of money.

The book is filled with info, but it "focuses" on the digital SLR, rather than the point and shoot. There should have been a warning in the description. It's still useful.

This book is huge and covers most anything one can think of on this topic. I bought it for my husband who has recently acquired a digital camera. He hasn't begun to even scratch the surface but has already found it helpful and knows it will as he tries new things.
