Going Digital is a great resource for digital camera users.

This is an excellent, easy-to-follow book that shares how-to's on many of the common obstacles digital camera users face when trying to capture their memories (and do something with them other than store them on their hard drive ..sheepish grin :)

I found the book geared a tad towards the novice to intermediate user though even advanced users will pick up helpful, often timesaving tips. What I really liked about this book was its organization. It allowed me to go directly to my topics of interest plus it has a very handy index in the back for specific references.

Thank you Alex Goldfayn. After reading your book in one night, I think I am ready to get started!

You'll find that this book, which shows you what to do with your digital photos, will inspire you to take more and better pictures. It's an all-around guide to sharing your photos and movies with family and friends. Excellent.

Gift this book to anyone who you know who feels intimidated by digital cameras, or camcorders, and anyone who is not very clear about what to do with those pictures and movies after they've taken them. This is a very comfortable read, and no one will feel as if they are being talked down to. There is a lot of useful information in this book, easy to follow, with tips that even the most experienced techno-geek can learn from.

I was so impressed with this book that I now recommend it as an adjunct to an introductory-level class I teach about digital-still cameras. By way of reference, I started and have been teaching that class for over four years now at Chicagoland's premier independent retailer. So I will claim a little knowledge of what works with people and what doesn't. This book works. And yes, I learned several things myself.

Highly recommended.

A great book for learning how to really, REALLY, use your digital camera and camcorder. Lots of great ideas and software suggestions (many free and most very affordable) for doing a lot of neat things that you may never have thought of. Well worth the money.

I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THE BOOKS INFORMATIVE STYLE, IT HAS GIVEN ME A QUICK EDUCATION ON THE NUANCES OF VARIED TYPES OF PRINTERS, SOFTWARE AND PHONES. IT WILL COME IN HANDY AS I DABBLE WITH MY OWN DIGITAL PICTURES FOR THE FIRST TIME. GREAT STUFF.

I'm not a technical person. So for me is very important that I understand how the gadgets work - video cameras, photo cameras, printers, ect. "Going Digital" is THE book I found to be a perfect match for my needs.

It's very entertaining and very family oriented, even my mom read it. What I also like about this book is that it has real people stories about using digital cameras at home, on vacation.

Reference Guide is very helpful with all the Expert Stores addresses and phone numbers in the US and around the world.

Thank you Alex for writing this great book. I'm sure many-many readers will benefit from reading it.

While this book may be of value for someone who doesn't know where to start, it's not of much value for anyone looking for tips or techniques. It doesn't really tell you how to do anything.

Unfortunately, this book does not provide the "how-to" it claims to. The author keeps telling you that in the next chapter he will give you lots of wonderful info, but he never seems to fulfill his promise. I bought this as a gift for my husband, who wanted it very much because of a short excerpt he had read. Uhfortunately, he was very disappointed.

Very informative and user friendly. Easy to read and understand the information. Not complicated with technical terms and abreviations.
