As a Livermore Valley Camera Club member for 40 years, I have watched a lot of ideas evolve from image-capture to print. This book, Real World Digital Photography, covers the latest ideas one should know in choosing equipment, optimizing the image exposure, uploading the image to the computer, using processing software, and printing and or sharing the image. I also heard Tim Grey speak recently and was pleased to see this book with him as one of the authors. One of the things that makes a photography how-to book useful is the author's ability to convey complex ideas simply and understandably. In other words, it does not matter how good you are if you cannot tell your story well. These authors are excellent writers!The first part of the book is a discussion on choosing a digital camera and the tradeoffs of point and shoot cameras to full-fledged SLRs. This part of the book is for beginners as well as more advanced photographers. It is definitely a handbook. The authors ably illustrate the differences in sensor size, ISO, noise, file formats, resolution, tripods, batteries and card readers. The table of contents says it all. (There is also a great index!) They talk about getting the exposure right. The appearance of the histogram is an important tool in getting the proper exposure. After all, photography is all about light. Light has color and one can correct it with white balance. Composition is discussed as well. And there is much, much more!Then the authors change course and the book becomes more of a discussion directed at the more experienced photographers. Panoramas may be of interest to beginners but HDR is probably not.The discussion on choosing a computer, storage of images and editing software, and printers becomes more complex.
