I can't say anymore than what's been said by the other reviewers except that this book should be packaged with all cameras and accessories. I'm looking forward to learning more from Mr Hess in future publishing's.
 Sony DSLR - A700 Digital Field Guide August 2, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Very well set up guide. Plenty of info. with out lots of techno babble. A outstanding users gude for the new DSLR user, even vetern shooters will find it handy due to the depth of features and functions of the A700. The color photos are better then black and white as in many guides. The last third of the book is broken down into sections on 22 specific styles of photography. This also includes a "on your own" practice assignment.
Best book on photgraphy basics ever! June 14, 2008
6 out of 7 found this review helpful
If you were to own just one book on photography essentials and advanced tips then this should be it. The chapter on lighting is especially valuable for those wanting to take the best photos for every type subject. And speaking of subects the chapter on that is a must.
I know this will be my photographer's bible for years to come.
Photography made easier for anyone! June 11, 2008
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I'm very impressed by this book. Not only does it tell me how to set up, maintain, and utilize the camera, but it also offers a HUGE range of professional advice on how to take better pictures. From composition to color, technical adjustments to common sense, Alan Hess reminds us that taking better pictures is easy! Noteworthy is his obvious passion for his work, and his ability to share that enthusiasm (and lessons learned!) with others. Anyone with a camera can benefit from the easy to read tips inside this book, but those with an A700 will breeze through the set-up and immediately be able to better capture any shot. Personally, i'm impressed with the range of subjects covered that i can apply to my daily use- travel shots, candids, pets, concerts, scenery. I'd recommend it to anyone!
FANTASTIC. June 4, 2008

I am literally blown away by this book. I have read many books on photography in general and never got the insight that Hess provides here. Not only can I use my A700 fully now, I have a much better idea how to shoot pictures than I ever have. This is simply the best book on Photography I have ever read. Well written easy to understand and a very enjoyable read. The author uses his own photos to subsidize his points with great affect. Ebay auctions, weddings, sporting events, concerts, events, portraits....all are covered here with excellent advice that can be used by all levels of users. This book is one I will refer back to for years for tips.....highly reccomended!
