 Where's the beef? January 9, 2009
The book started strong enough--great information specific to the A700. Then after the first two chapters, the remaining two thirds of the book was filled with generic photographic material that could have been applied to any camera.
I wanted specific data about the camera--for the entire book, i.e. recommended adjustments for saturation, or contrast, or sharpness in certain conditions. I wanted a discussion about the nuances of the camera based on use. This is just a pretty ops manual.

 easy to use December 29, 2008
this easy to use guide is not only helpful to a digital photographer but also for someone who is not a "photographer." I reach for this book anytime I have a simple question about shooting any photo.

I can't say anymore than what's been said by the other reviewers except that this book should be packaged with all cameras and accessories. I'm looking forward to learning more from Mr Hess in future publishing's.

3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Very well set up guide. Plenty of info. with out lots of techno babble. A outstanding users gude for the new DSLR user, even vetern shooters will find it handy due to the depth of features and functions of the A700. The color photos are better then black and white as in many guides. The last third of the book is broken down into sections on 22 specific styles of photography. This also includes a "on your own" practice assignment.

If you were to own just one book on photography essentials and advanced tips then this should be it. The chapter on lighting is especially valuable for those wanting to take the best photos for every type subject. And speaking of subects the chapter on that is a must.
I know this will be my photographer's bible for years to come.
