3.0 out of 5 stars The pocket idiot's guide to photography, April 5, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Pocket Idiot's Guide to Photography (Paperback)
The book's intentions are good yet the print is very fine and hard to read. If you do not understand camera vocabulary such as SLR or autofocus, other words and all of the functions of the camera, this book won't be entertaining. If you have an APS or digital camera I wouldn't recommend you to buy this book for those categories are not present in this book, but if you are just looking for techniques for taking pictures or tips than this is the book of choice for you.
