A lot here!5
I like this book! Working my way through it. It is well organized and gives you very practical advice on how to ramp up the quality of your images. Even if you only follow a few of the bits of advice and techniques here, you will get your investment in what you paid for the book right back. I buy way too many photography books, but I am do not regret getting this one at all!

Also.. 'Understanding Exposure; Revised edition' that just came out. That is a MUST GET for anyone who wants to get a full handle on exposure and get off AUTO and PROGRAM mode. I hardly ever take my camera off MANUAL mode any more because of 'Understanding Exposure.

Learn how to get the best images from your gear5
Everyday new books on photography are released and it makes me wonder what more can be written that hasn't already been covered. In reality, writing books is just as much an art as photography. Take the same subject, give it a different author, and you have a completely
fresh look.

Getting quality images out of a camera is as much an art as photography itself and a great eye alone is just not enough. With digital photography there are so many variables that can and will affect your final image; lens quality, image sensor (size and quality), camera quality and settings, lighting, photo editing techniques, printer, and paper to name a few. The "Complete Guide to Ultimate Digital Photo Quality" provides detailed information on how to choose the best equipment for you and then how to squeeze out every last bit of quality from your setup.

I have been very fortunate to this point to have received so many great books to review. My high school teachers would be shocked at
how much I love to learn. Somewhere between the ages of 18 and 44 I developed a thirst for knowledge and a passion for photography. Even still, it takes a well-written book to keep me focused (no pun intended) and interested and Derek Doeffinger has done just that.
