‘Digital Photography (Top 100 Simplified Tips & Tricks)’ by Rob Sheppard

‘Digital Photography’ was written by Rob Sheppard. The book contains 240 pages and was published in August 2007. The book was designed for photographers who already have a basic understanding of how a digital camera works. The author has put together a collection of instructions covering 100 different photographic techniques, on a range of different topics.

Readers will find that each topic clearly explained and helpful illustrations are included. If you prefer to learn through graphic representation, rather than text, this book is a great choice. By following each step, the reader will quickly notice a marked improvement in their photographic skills.

Every technique that is covered has a difficulty rating attached to it. This will allow you to decide which techniques you would like to experiment with first. What makes this book especially useful is that as you work through the various topics, you will often find that something you have learned earlier will often form the basis for a more advanced technique. This means that the information you are assimilating will be reinforced as you apply the skills you have gained to more complex subjects.

Readers will appreciate the way that each technique has the same basic layout. Once you have worked through the first few, you will become familiar with this and the subsequent topics will be much easier to follow. A number of symbols are used throughout the book to indicate the start of a new task or a combination of two different tasks.
