This review is from: Camtasia Studio 4: The Definitive Guide (Wordware Applications Library) (Paperback)
I fall into the newbie category and had to come up to speed very quickly, using Camtasia Studio 4 to record and produce several video podcasts of PowerPoint presentations for my company. I bought several books and read "how-to's" on the internet, but this book turned out to be my savior. If you buy only one book, this one should be the one.

This review is from: Camtasia Studio 4: The Definitive Guide (Wordware Applications Library) (Paperback)
I have literally shelves full of computer books.
This is one of very few I've actually read cover-to-cover. But the book is structured so that for the most part you can read any one chapter without missing out on information that depends on a previous chapter. I've even wound up taking some of his hardware advice. Otherwise, I never would have thought to purchase a preamp with as dorky a name as "Audio Buddy"...LOL... If you're using Camtasia Studio to produce instructional or sales videos - or considering using it - this is the book you need.

Why do I need a book for a product like Camtasia??,
By
This review is from: Camtasia Studio 4: The Definitive Guide (Wordware Applications Library) (Paperback)
Because I am making money by selling my Camtasia videos, and I want to know everything I can about the product. I consider myself an advanced user of Camtasia, and the tips I have learned from Daniel Park's book more than justify the cost.
