  Book Information

Digital technology has revitalized the interest in one of
the most fascinating creative hobbies: photography. This
"ground up" guide to digital photography will help the
novice photographer get started with a firm foundation in
understanding the principals and techniques of modern
photography. It will also guide the more experienced
photographer through the transition from analog to digital
photography.

Whereas most other books on digital photography focus on
image editing in Photoshop, this book deals with the
photographic workflow from capture to print and storage.

In this book the reader will learn:

How imaging occurs in digital cameras
What to look for when buying a new camera
An understanding of composition
Digital shooting techniques
Image editing, printing, and presentation
How to archive and organize photographic images

This is not a book that explains which button to push, but
it is what the title promises: an in-depth course loaded
with valuable information and tips. Juergen's goal is to
share his own experience as a photographer, and to pass on
the knowledge that will make photography an enjoyable and
rewarding endeavor.
