The Digital Photography Book (Volume 1)

My veteran photographer friends would laugh at me if they knew I bought this book. I'm a real novice, and many of my friends are professional art and event shooters. I liked this book, though, because it reminded me a lot of having a conversation with a photographer friend. In fact, this is a goal clearly stated by the author: he wanted to cut out the technical explanations and write as if he and the reader were out shooting, giving flat advice and instructions. It works for what it is, I picked up a lot of tips from the book. Its main limitation is that it does leave me wondering too much at the "whys" while it answers the "hows." The author suggests going out to buy one of the many other photography books out there if I want those answers. I agree, if you want concise answers and quick results, it's a good book, but if you want to understand the principles behind the tricks, then there's more reading to be done.
