This book won’t cheat you. Unlike many of the “digital photography” books on the shelves, this one doesn’t waste half its chapters telling you how to overcome your digital camera’s shortcomings in Photoshop. There are lots of great Photoshop books that can do that. No, the best part about the new breed of digital SLRs is that they have exciting new capabilities that will let you take great pictures in the camera, if you know how to use the tools at your fingertips. This book emphasizes digital photography rather than software. It shows you how to take compelling pictures and make great images using imaging technology, while taking into account the special strengths of digital SLR cameras. Whether you’re a snap-shooting tyro, or an experienced photographer moving into the digital SLR realm, you’ll find the knowledge you need here. Every word in this book was written from the viewpoint of the serious photographer.
