Review: Good value. Clear, concise, well written with informative and relevant photos - Excellent book. Well written and illustrated. It does start off VERY basic but soon gets into the technical stuff which is explained in a clear and concise way. It is very focussed (sorry for the pun) on Canon for camera operations but the info should transfer. I paired it with Digital Photography Basics Pocket Guide which has lots of practice assignments and I find the two books complement each other well.
Review: DK published Beginner's Photography Guide - excellent, just as expected - Over the decades I have bought numerous DK books and have been pleased with all of them. This book is no exception, it is beautifully presented in a large format with glossy pages, clear printing and excellent photographic examples. Although the focus from the author is on Nikon and Canon dSLR cameras, they do point out that all the points made will apply to most dSLR, mirrorless, compact, and even some smartphones, advising readers need only check their own instruction manuals for the positions of certain buttons. This book really is designed for beginners. The text is easy to follow with no unnecessary jargon and the book begins right at the start from when you first pick up your new camera, showing what it can do, what accessories you might need, before moving on to chapters covering various aspects of photography. I can't praise this book enough. If you have just bought a nice camera, or if you have one tucked away in its case because it seemed to complicated to use, definitely buy this book and slowly make your way through the chapters.
