Definetely worth the money!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 27, 2010

Verified Purchase

Recently I started getting into digital IR photography. I got most of the basic information about IR photo shooting and simple RAW image conversion from the internet first. But I realized pretty soon that I wanted to gain more detailed knowledge of IR photography and the conversion of photos in software programs like PS. I screened several available books about IR photography published in the past few years and finally decided to get the one from D. Sandidge. It turned out to be an excellent choice: I was afraid that this book will focus endlessly on very basic principles but this is definetely not the case. The book is written for more professional users of DSLR cameras, which are either fully converted for IR or just by adding filters onto lenses to achive the same or similar effects. The book is full of very good examples of IR photographies supporting the context in the chapters. I gained a lot from the more advanced workshop chapters including HDR with IR photographies and merging color/IR photos. The book is a wonderful summary of creative IR possibilities which can be achieved with digital SLR cameras and the right software processing afterwards. The book is extremely well written, and the workshop steps are clearly defined (bold print to find the specific menus in the programs). Screenshots support those step-by-step tutorials.
The only negative remark I can make is the focus on mostly commercially available software filters in the last few book chapters. It is not stated clearly in the book that those software filters are no freeware and need to be purchased seperately. Here I wish the author would have mostly stayed with the available PS program filters or referring to freeware filter plugins. But this is a minor issue. Overall I can highly recommend this book since it will open up a complete new way to do creative photography.

Expect only introductory content

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 8, 2013

Verified Purchase

There is nothing in this book that can't be had on the Internet. However, Sandidge did a good job compiling plenty of infrared examples which "saved" the book from being returned by me. When I ordered this book Amazon provided no table of contents and no search inside, so I ordered mostly blind. By the time I ordered this book I had read up on infrared on the Net quite a bit, only to find much the same knowledge content in this book (which I couldn't assess because of no Search Inside). I gave the book a chance thinking that it would eventually take me beyond the basics of infrared, but it did not. I also had to wade through a lot of photography principles for which I did not buy the book. I also found it disturbing that only one camera conversion service provider was named in the book, although there are at least a half dozen which were around even when the book was authored. All in all, lots of infrared image examples, which I appreciated, but the book did not enhance my knowledge of infrared photography to any appreciable level beyond reading online material. Perhaps when Sandidge updates the book she'll address the people who want to take infrared beyond introductory. I think she should also be clear that photographers who pursue infrared probably don't need/want photography basics, which this book largely consists of. Sandidge, of all people, could provide a book about infrared photography that exceeds commonly available information - I know, from my recent experience with it, that infrared photography can quickly exceed basics (which is where the fun begins).

Excellent book on IR Photography

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 14, 2009

Verified Purchase

I must say that the author has put some real thought into the contents of this book. I have just started getting into IR photography and have been searching for a book on such a subject. I wanted a all-in-one type book on IR photography so that I didn't need to go out and buy separate books on each subject matter. The author has thoughtfully put together such a book and I give it a high five! You get an introduction into the process of IR photography either with filters on the lens or a IR converted camera. The author gives you all types of examples to explore in IR compositions from landscapes to closeups and even our furry little friends cats and dogs. The last third of the book digs deep into post processing using Photoshop and even adding HDR techniques to your IR images. Their our many photo examples in full color infrared and black & white to give you your own inspirations. Another nice feature to this book, there is a project at the end of each chapter for you to do from what you have read previously. You can even upload your IR workshop photo examples to a special web site for critique by others for inspiration and suggestions.

Best, but ...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 29, 2009

Verified Purchase

This is the best infrared photography book I have ever read. The practical approach makes things easily implemented and the way the author describes things is excellent. People can have different style, but the way I read and understand things fit her style.

However I personally think that the book is too wide, covering everything from the floor to the ceiling in one book. I do know and do not want to spend my money for things I can find freely on the net. Lighting technicality which creates infrared, conversion versus filter, etc. are things I do not want to read. Other photography techniques such as composition, focusing, and lighting are better covered by many books, and, when you jump into infrared, most possibly you have mastered your DSLR.

The only thing that I need is digital post processing which unfortunately only take a small fraction of this book. It just does not fair to buy a book for reading only 10% of it.

It is a great staring point for someone who just jumped into the Infrared Medium.
I wish it was on Kindle or a Digital Format with active Hot Spots for Words and Technique.
I have become spoiled with my tablet and Electronic Books and Info.
The Writing is clear and Packed with Good, Understandable Details.
This Book is a bargain and I do understand how much time, work and effort went into the creation of this book.
This is a "Must" Book for Digital Infrared Education... it is worth your time and money.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on April 6, 2010

I've been dabbling in infrared photography for a couple of years, starting with an R72 filter and then progressing to having a second hand Nikon D70 converted to infrared only. Joe Farace's book on infrared photography is a great oversight to the subject but is too general. Deborah Sandige takes you from interested beginner through to a skilled photographer in IR, using advanced techniques such as HDR, gels and Photoshop.

Deb Sandige's book is outstanding. This is not an overly technical book. Yes there has to be discussion of nanometres and White Balance but this is the precursor to letting you loose on the world of infrared photography. There is a chapter on indoor IR photography, something I'd never considered. In addition she uses HDR (High Dynamic Range) with IR to create some stunning shots.

If like me you're no expert in Photoshop she guides you through Channel Mixing, and other techniques and filters to further enhance your IR photography. You can also upload your assignments (one at the end of each chapter) to a website for review.

I can confirm what the previous reviewer said - she does respond to your IR queries.

I love this book and am so pleased I bought it. It has helped me to think about shooting thematically as well as to use HDR and indoor shooting. Can't wait for the rain to stop so I can get out shooting.

Excellent workbook

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 26, 2011

Verified Purchase

One of my aims has been to expand the range of my photographic skills, and in particular with infra-red photography. This book has met all my expectations, it's crammed with useful information, tips, advice, and most importantly photographic tasks to try. It's very much a tutorial in a book, and is very easy to follow.

Any bugbears that have arisen have come about from the technology and it's capability and not the book. My camera is a Canon EOS 550D, and has one of the best IR filters built in, which means trying to do infra-red photography using just a screw in filter and not butchering your camera to remove the built-in filter makes for very long exposures and a lot of frustration. That's a fault in my research and reading and not the information in the book, in fact the opposite is true, the book talked long and loud about the subject and set me right on many fronts.

I have been hugely impressed by this book, and will be looking to other books in the series for advice.

I recommend this book very strongly, and recommend you read it BEFORE you get the equipment.

Not much help

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on April 25, 2011

Verified Purchase

I bought this book hoping to learn more about the techniques required for infrared photography, and possibly some inspiration, but got neither. After reading about five chapters, it struck me that this wasn't really about infrared but about photography in general, with some passing remarks to infrared. You could substitute 'visible light' for infrared and the book would read just as well for a basic introduction to general photography. The example images were not very inspiring, even quite dull. You could learn more about basic infrared photography from internet searches. There are assignments at the end of each chapter, but these again are mostly just as applicable to visible light photography, and very basic. I'm returning my copy as 'unsuitable for the purpose required'. Not recommended.

Very enjoyable

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 27, 2013

As a relative newcomer to digital infrared ( I used to use Kodak High Speed infrared film back in the day) I found Deborah Sandidge's book very useful. There is much to learn about post-processing settings in Photoshop, Lightroom, Nik etc. if you want to get THAT image just how you imagined it, and this book is a good starting point. Some of the images included are breathtakingly beautiful (IF you love infrared's ability to show the world in a dreamy, mystical way), while others are so-so. If you are into digital IR, this is well worth considering.

This book is a wealth of ideas for anyone who wants to shoot more than just trees and grass. I have other books on infrared photography, but this was the most informative by far. It is full of tips on using IR creatively, and also showcases the work of several photographers and includes a useful list of resources in the appendix.
