Synopsis

This book is aimed at providing more advanced techniques to digital camera buffs as well as business people using the new breed of digital SLR in their work environment. For anyone who has learned most of a digital camera's basic capabilities and who now wonders what to do with the enhanced features found in digital SLR cameras, this is a dream guide to pixel proficiency. It is packed not only with tips, tricks, and sophisticated techniques, but also easy-to-complete, useful projects that will allow readers to do more with their cameras. Although the techniques are more advanced, there will be enough grounding in basics that any serious photographer can benefit from this book. More than just a general digital camera book, this is a book about digital SLR photography: how to take great pictures with the newest cameras and make great images that leverage the strengths of computer technology, while taking into account the special needs of digital cameras.
