5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book to improve your photography skills, June 18, 2005
This review is from: Reader's Digest Complete Photography Manual: A Practical Guide to Improving Your Photography (Hardcover)
This book is not for absolute beginners. You won't appreciate all the concepts unless you've already been experimenting for a while and are now ready to move to the next level. Digital camera owners take note, every photography concept in this book applies equally to your digital camera so don't feel you need to get a book for digital cameras. For post processing of digital pictures, definetely get another book. This book teaches the basics that every camera operator should know regardless of digital or analog. The book also very clearly explains its concepts with excellent examples of photographs.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Better Ones, October 10, 2008
This review is from: Reader's Digest Complete Photography Manual: A Practical Guide to Improving Your Photography (Hardcover)
Without questions, there are myriad books on photography cluttering up bookstores' shelves across the world. Though, after having gone through most of them, I found myself often being able to predict ones I hadn't read before even picking them up, I was pleasantly surprised as I went through "Reader's Digest's Complete Photography Manual." First, a word of advice: if you're just starting out, this "might" not be the appropriate book for you. Although it's hardly a compilation of "advanced techniques," and though it does cover the basics, where it shines is in its frank and excavating discussions of technical matters. The photographs are wonderful, and the text is clear and interesting, but the book will probably appeal more to those who have a handle on photography and are still searching for a good book about a subject they love, than to those who're trying to understand how exposure works.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad I should say!, September 14, 2010

This review is from: Reader's Digest Complete Photography Manual: A Practical Guide to Improving Your Photography (Hardcover)
Pretty decent book. Did enjoy reading through certain areas like Macro Photography. There are no measurements and equipment details in the pictures used in the example, which makes it useless.
