Summary: Excellent series
Comment: Volume 2 continues where volume 1 ended. Perforce, the solutions explsined are a little bit more advanced, more exotic in their applicability and rarer to occur but when you need them, they are worth their weight in gold. Nice book to have. You will be tempted to try a lot more photography.

Summary: Good follow up effort
Comment: I read Scott Kelby's first Digital Photography Book and found it quite useful. So when this one came out, I didn't hesitate. Keep in mind though that this book spends a great deal on studio and portrait/wedding photography. If your interests lie here, this is a good one for you. I'm not interested as much in these areas so I found the book not as useful as the first. Other topics include, travel, landscape, macro and miscellaneous photo tips. Each contains helpful hints that are worthwhile knowing but there are a few overlaps with his last book. I like Mr. Kelby's style so I'm a fan of his work. The thing about Mr. Kelby's writing is that he makes it simple and straight forward. Most photography books give you lots of info but sometimes not the most useful info. Overall I'd say this is a good book and the price is reasonable. Would I have bought it had I paged through it at a bookstore? Not sure.

Summary: worth every penny!
Comment: Highly recommended book! I've seen how funny the author on their show in PhotoShop User TV is, and you can imagine how he must have written this! Overall, very concise, straight-forward, no-BS, entertaining content. Although some of the techniques he gave here are not new to me, (all of it are helpful, btw) it is primarily targeted for dSLR beginners. Don't get me wrong! but some of the tips are unknown to some Pros. The easy-to-digest approach of single technique per page is what makes this book very interesting to read.

Summary: Best author!
Comment: Scott Kelby writes his books just like he's sitting or standing right next to you and tells in simple English how to do what ever you're reading about. I own at least 3 of his books and love them! AND I don't have to read a whole book to get to what I need to learn! You can't go wrong with Scott Kelby's books!
