Book Description
Complete Digital Photography is written for photographers of all skill levels who want to use digital cameras to produce quality images. If you’re an amateur or hobbyist photographer looking to take better pictures, and you’ve decided to use a digital camera instead of traditional film, this book will show you the fundamental technical concerns of shooting good pictures. If you’re an experienced film photographer interested in making the switch to digital photography, and you want to understand the new technology, you’ll learn what’s really different about working with a digital camera.

In this updated, full-color edition, you’ll learn about the latest cameras and technologies, as well as the most recent updates to the software and hardware that you need to edit and print your pictures. Using a variety of practical tutorials, you’ll learn about the technical details you need to understand to produce high-quality digital photographs, including image editing, retouching, color correction, noise reduction, compositing, masking, special effects, and more. The image editing examples and tutorials are built around Adobe Photoshop; however, because most image editing programs have the same basic tools and interface, the concepts and examples covered apply to just about any image editing tool.
