Summary: Good, but not what I really wanted!!
Comment: I learned from the information in the book, but I was looking for a little different information. I guess that will come with experenice.

Summary: Great book of pointers for a beginning photographer
Comment: Inexpensive but very helpful little book full of pointers for a beginning photographer who wants to get a little serious about his/her work. The book is composed of a bunch of pointers that are clearly explained and illustrated. I have bought both volumes just as I was getting into photography and found them to be very useful. They are also nice because they are a quick read.

Summary: Great Book!!!!!
Comment: This book is very good. It is written in a way that anybody can understand. It truely is written as if you where talking to a friend and explaining to him how you do something, in this case photography. I highly reccomend it to anyone wanting to know a little more about digital photography and how to do certain things. It covers many areas of how toos like Flash Photography or Macro (Close up) Photography. Very Good Book.

Summary: Excellent book - A must read
Comment: If you are interested in Digital Photography, this is the book for you. Scott Kelby did not go into technical details for the photography tips, instead he would just tell you what f-stop or shutter speed for taking certain types of shots. Wonderful book. Highly recommended.

Summary: Helpful, but not as much as volume 1
Comment: As a beginner photographer, I found volume 1 incredibly helpful. I felt that after reading it, I'd saved myself about 6 months of annoying "why didn't I think of that ages ago?" realizations. Tips like using a UV filter (using one has saved a lens already for me), or taking an indicator shot before and after a series of panoramic images, are just useful. Unfortunately, volume 2 starts scraping the barrel. The tips here are useful, but you'll likely figure them out on your own if you've read book 1 and/or are a thoughtful photographer. Good, but not great.
