Review:
"If John Neel's Focus in Photography sounds like it might be a little more philosophical than nuts and bolts tutorial, that may be because Neel has given a lot of thought to the subject.
He's also spent a lot of time exploring the many facets of focusing an image so you get the nuts and bolts along with the philosophy behind them, too.
That makes this one of the more surprisingly delightful photography reads we've enjoyed recently.
We like Neel's consideration of the larger issues (why you might shoot a panorama and the different kinds of panorama you might shoot, for example) as well as the technical details (down to software recommendations) of subjects like focus stacking.
It isn't easy to marry those two discussions but Neel manages to do it very smoothly. He provides a general understanding of the concepts before he shows you how to use the gear to apply them in practice. You actually have the feeling of having learned something." - Mike Pasini - Photo Corners
