3.0 out of 5 stars DUMMY PHOTOGRAPHER Feb 25 2013
By Lorraine Rogers
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I ordered this book when I got my first DSLR. I learned a few basic techniques from reading it but I still found it difficult to understand the terminology. Their explanations of things were still a little overwhelming for a beginner.

2.0 out of 5 stars Digital SLR Photography All in One for Dummies April 28 2011
By Photo Jack
Format:Paperback
This book is wrongly titled, as the writer has mostly used Nikon & Sony Camera & mostly explains about these cameras. If you own any other brand of Digital SLR Camera, then this book has very limited use. So I do not recommend for any one who has other brand of Digital SLR.

5.0 out of 5 stars Real knowledge for photographers of all levels. Feb 11 2011
By Doctor Dan - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Don't let the title put you off. The word "Dummies" might cause some folks to look elsewhere without even considering the content. I got started taking photos with a large Graflex press camera that used film plates (like you see the Press guys using in the old black and white movies) and have done my share of photography over the years.

With the advent of digital cameras,and especially the more recent high end DSLR models, there's whole new realm of information to master. Whether you're a seasoned photographer graduating from film (remember film?) to a new digital SLR monster, or someone having their first experience with a point and shoot digital camera, this book will have a wealth of knowledge to help you enjoy your visual passion.
