Mr Apollo

Grand tour of photo printing, with some depth

Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2016

Verified Purchase

Schewe's two books have been quite helpful as I ramp up my digital camera usage to get more attractive hard copy results at sizes above 8x10. I respect him a lot from his contributions to the Luminous Landscape website. This book about printing covers all of the bases from digital image to mounted and framed ink+paper. It even covers exhibiting. It takes a grand tour approach with some tangents -- for someone looking for a howto does it make any difference that musician Graham Nash was a pioneer in digital printing?

Despite its design that tries to touch every base (and a few too many) within modest length, this book has plenty of depth on some essentials -- his photos of art paper surface textures comparing natural versus white and cold press versus hot press were outstandingly informative. His coverage of color management inspired me to finally appreciate the value of ICC printer profiles and get them working. His settings-then-results approach is very useful even when I can't understand how the two connect initially.

There are three problems with both of Schewe's books that lead to my less than 5 stars: (1) To try any of the software examples one must have an Adobe Lightroom or Photoshop license or subscription; (2) The books' software aspects go obsolete quickly as software versions proceed - he does release later book versions that one has to buy at full price again (in Kindle); (3) He is a very advanced practitioner of the arts and sciences of image processing and print production, and for me who is slowly ramping upward his writing often leaves me behind initially and I have to go elsewhere (e.g. Kelby or DPReview) to get up to speed before I can take advantage of what he covers. Compare his to Michael Reichmann's (R.I.P.) writing at Luminous Landscape which often meets me at my amateur, affordable level.

Worthwhile purchases both.

Let me begin by saying BRAVO!

Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2014

Verified Purchase

I have been looking for a book that covers Photoshop and image color management in a concise and up to date manner. It's not a sexy subject, I but it's an essential one that distinguishes those photographers who do know it. I can spare you reading another tedious review - just get this book!

First of all, Jeff gets it. He knows what it is we need to know and is able to communicate it with a great deal of clarity - perhaps too much clarity for some! He starts at a logical place and takes you through the entire color management process as a procedural workflow - which is uber helpful even to us professionals. He covers tough issues like image sharpening and preparation for printing, workflow and final printing - all of which can be HUGE challenges especially when you consider how quickly technologies come and go and change. He gives you the core-level stuff you really need to need to know to make smarter decisions and dodge all of the mental masturbation people who truly have no idea what they are talking about are spewing with regularity on the Internet.

If there any weaknesses, it is probably that Jeff doesn't include anything about RAW converters like Capture One Pro, which would be nice since so many use it today. Maybe the next revision, Jeff? That's a pretty minimal nit when you consider the entirety of this work.

This is one of the best books I've acquired in a long time - and it should be on every photographer's shelf. In an nutshell, I don't think you can call yourself a professional unless you know this stuff - and this is one place to get it and get it correctly. This book isn't for the faint of heart, but it's essential knowledge covered in a logical way that is both understandable and comfortable.

At last! My prints match my vision! Thank you, Jeff Schewe.

Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2015

Verified Purchase

Wow. Just wow. Jeff Schewe knows what he's talking about. I got to the point where I was getting serious about my photography as a potential business ... but highly dissatisfied with the inconsistent results I'd get from various labs. Sometimes great. Sometimes horrible. So I picked up an Epson SureColor P600 to get my feet wet. Here's the thing though - my previous experience with digital printers was horrible. I would see others getting great results and my prints were crappy. This book fixed that. My first print out after reading this book was right on the money. It matched what I was seeing on screen and - better yet - matched my vision.

Now, if I had a quibble, it would be that the author spends too much time up front on color theory. A lot to wade through that I'm not sure is necessary. But it's a minor quibble. The payoff for those early chapters are that you're set up nicely for the following how-to guides on Lightroom and Photoshop. I'm sure there are other great books out there on digital printing. But this one - from my experience - is excellent.

Good info, but dated and too technical.

Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2019

Verified Purchase

Jeff Schwe is an excellent writer and a joy to read. His knowledge of printing processes inspires confidence. However, I don't see how endless pages about color theory will make me a better printer. Maybe he could summarize the essential technical details necessary for making a good print. Also, the information is five years old. Isn't it about time he came out with an updated edition? Formatting for the book deserves pluses and minuses. The binding is superb: I love the way the book lies flat; if only more books did this. However, the screen shots are so small I can barely read them. My suggestion: Fewer pages about highly technical stuff that the average photographer will never use, leaving more room for larger screen shots for those who don't have 20/20 vision.

The Incredible Knowledge Of Jeff Schewe

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 20, 2013

Verified Purchase

Having read the last book, The Digital Negative, I felt compelled to purchase this next book and I have not been disappointed. Jeff writes with the experience and knowledge from a life time of photography. The information is explained in a very down to earth, matter of fact, common sense way. The book is worth getting just for Chapter 5 it self, Attributes Of A Perfect Print. There's knowledge in this chapter you'd be hard pressed to find anywhere else, or take days to find and its all here in this one chapter.
The only gripe I do have is, I feel, is his unfair criticism of printing from Photoshop, over emphasising how time consuming it is making sure all those boxes are ticked correctly. When I have a print ready, I apply a Pixel Genius Output Sharpener, open the print dialogue make sure all the settings are correct and print, it only takes a few seconds. A man of Jeff's talent would whizz through this seconds. I think there's some subtle manipulation going on here to slowly persuade us to eventually move over to Lightroom, but I'm very happy with Photoshop, its more hands on. Anyway, apart from that, this is a highly informative book that everybody who has any interest in quality printing should buy. If you got this then you should buy the last one and if you got the last one you must buy this one, you'll never know what you're missing!
In fact if you have these 2 books and buy Martin Evenings new book, Adobe Photoshop CC For Photographers, or if you are into Lightroom his new Lightroom 5 book or both, these are all the books you'll ever need for still photography.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 29, 2016

Verified Purchase

This is the companion volume to The Print, and is equally as good and not to be missed - the two volumes compliment one another and it is a joy. Further, there is no participation in the argument about the merits of one medium (traditional) and the universality of the other (digital) but instead points up the virtues of both, and in their inherent limitations. But for me, when all is said and done, I am gratified that his knowledge stems from a deeply held commitment to a great amount of experience gained from a full comprehension to both methods of working, and this he readily passes on in a lucid and comprehensible manner that is a pleasure to receive. I warmly commend these books as the leading ones in their field - they are something to read, read and read again....

Ottimo libro per approfondire la stampa digitale!

Reviewed in Italy on June 22, 2016

Verified Purchase

Libro ben scritto sull'arte della stampa digitale. Fornisce sia approfondimenti teorici (molto ben spiegati, ma forse un po' tecnici per chi non ha un po' di basi) sia suggerimenti pratici. Questi ultimi sono specifici per Lightroom e Photoshop, ma sono anche estendibili ad altri software per la postproduzione una volta compresi.
Il capitolo sulla preparazione delle stampe per quanto riguarda gestione del colore e della luminosità potrebbe forse essere esteso con ulteriori approfondimenti ed esempi, ma nella globalità il libro copre tutti i temi importanti e riporta numerosi esempi che aiutano a capire i concetti ed a vederli applicati in pratica.

In conclusione: libro consigliatissimo per chi ha già qualche base di postproduzione di foto e di stampa digitale e vuole ulteriormente approfondire queste tematiche.
