Even film diehards have a tough time resisting the instant
gratification of the digital camera. Today's digital cameras are
more affordable then ever before, and they deliver high quality
images that are a snap to share. Plus, you can take risks with a
digital camera you never would with a film camera. You waste
nothing; there's no film required, and because you only print the
pictures you need, digital photography is cost effective and
environmentally friendly.
But to take full advantage of a digital camera, you need to be
an experienced photographer and an expert at digital photography
too. With more than 15 years of experience as a photojournalist,
author Derrick Story brings you "Digital Photography Pocket Guide,"
3rd Edition. For everyone who owns or will own a digital camera
(and that pretty much means everyone!), this is the perfect
on-the-go guide for taking top-notch digital photos.
In this third edition of the bestselling pocket guide, Story
expands on the basic photography techniques that he introduced in
earlier editions, including an explanation of each camera component
and what it does, tips for choosing just the right settings for
your needs, and much more. This indispensable guide covers
everything from how to shoot sports action, close ups, and night
shots, to dealing with image resolution, archiving, and memory
cards.
Affordable and portable, "Digital Photography Pocket Guide,"
3rd Edition offers full-color photographs, screen shots, and line
art illustrating all the topics in the guide's three main sections
("Digital Camera Components," "Standard Camera Functions," and "How
Do I?"). Contents are labeled A to Z for quick reference. There's
also acomprehensive table of contents and index so you'll waste no
time flipping to the specific information you need--whether you
want to transfer images, make a QuickTime movie, or just figure out
what purpose that mystery setting on your camera serves. There's
even a section of easy-to-read reference tables for quick look-up
of white balance settings, exposure compensation, camera mode
explanations, and plenty more.
