5.0 out of 5 stars Loads of book for the money, 23 May 2006
This review is from: The Digital Photography Handbook: An Illustrated Step-by-step Guide (Paperback)
An excellent book, can't believe it was so cheap. This is a well written book with all you need to know about digital photography from what camera to buy to printing off your well executed photos. It is written in basic terms which is useful as I bought this book as a present for my old man who is a bit of a Luddite who now uses an Ixus instead of his beloved 35mm lump, and even he can follow it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential reading, 6 Mar 2006
This review is from: The Digital Photography Handbook: An Illustrated Step-by-step Guide (Paperback)
If you're relatively new to the world of digital photography, or about to purchase a digicam, then you NEED this book - it's jam-packed with useful stuff! Starting off with what equipment you'll actually need, it looks at effective photo techniques for a range of subjects, together with creative tips to help enhance the resulting shots. There's an in-depth look at digital image-editing software, with plenty of inspiring examples showing the effectiveness of both basic & advanced techniques, all clearly explained in a jargon-free way. this is a pretty essential read!
