Product Description

Product Description
Apple has taken iPhoto 08 to a whole new level. Now, in addition to handling upwards of 250,000 images, the program lets you easily categorize and navigate through those photos with a feature called "Events". Plus, new editing tools let you copy and paste adjustments between photos. Books and calendars have been improved, too, as has the program's ability to publish pictures on the Web.

Apple makes it all sound easy: drag this, click that, and you're done. But you can still get lost, especially if you're a newcomer. iPhoto '08: The Missing Manual explains how to take advantage of all these powerful tools and new features without confusion or frustration. Bestselling authors David Pogue and Derrick Story give you a witty, objective, and clear-cut explanation of how things work, with plenty of undocumented tips and tricks for mastering the new iPhoto.

Four sections help you import, organize, edit, share, and even take your photos:
  • Digital Photography: The Missing Manual offers a course in picture-taking and digital cameras -- how to buy and use your digital camera, how to compose brilliant photos in various situations (sports, portraits, nighttime shots, even kid photography), and how to get the most out of batteries and memory cards.


  • iPhoto Basics covers the fundamentals of getting your photos into iPhoto, organizing and filing them, searching and editing them.


  • Meet Your Public teaches you all about slideshows, making or ordering prints, creating books, calendars and greeting cards, and sharing photos on web sites or by email.


  • iPhoto Stunts explains how to turn photos into screen savers or desktop pictures, using plug-ins, managing Photo Libraries, and even getting photos to and from camera phones and Palm organizers.


You also learn how to build a personal web site built with iWeb, and much more in this comprehensive guide. It's the top-selling iPhoto book for good reason.

5.0 out of 5 stars BUY IT, YOU WONT REGRET IT, 10 April 2008
By G. Slack (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having just upgraded to Leopard and iphoto 08, I thought I would look to improve my skills. This book IS the one that should have been in the box. The 1st part covers everything you need to know about buying and operating a digital camera. I found out about features of my Olympus camera that I didn't know existed. The book explains the basics and the more complicated features in a simple easily understood way. The 2nd and 3rd sections cover the iphoto software itself and I am working my way through the chapters learning more and more. How I wished I'd discovered this book months ago. I would recommend this series of books to everybody ( I have also purchased the Mac OS X Leopard version)

4.0 out of 5 stars readable and informative, 9 Jan 2009
As a fairly new MAC user I ws delighted when a friend recommended this author. Although there is a wealth of information available on line, sometimes it's useful to sit down with this book and absorb the various bits of information as part of the learning process of using a new computer
