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.
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.
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.
Top reviews from other countries
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.
As a captureOne user, I found that the emphasis on Adobe products was less relevant for me.
Otherwise recommended.
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.
