Product Description

Product Description

This book breaks new ground by doing something for digital photographers that’s never been done before—it cuts through the bull and shows you exactly “how to do it.” It’s not a bunch of theory; it doesn’t challenge you to come up with your own settings or figure things out on your own. Instead, it does something that virtually no other Elements book has ever done—it tells you flat-out which settings to use, when to use them, and why.

If you’re looking for one of those “tell-me-everything-about-the-Unsharp-Mask-filter” books, this isn’t it. You can grab any other Elements book on the shelf, because they all do that. Instead, this book gives you the inside tips and tricks of the trade for organizing, correcting, editing, sharpening, retouching, and printing your photos like a pro. You’ll be absolutely amazed at how easy and effective these techniques are—once you know the secrets.

LEARN HOW THE PROS DO IT
Each year we train thousands of digital photographers and, almost without exception, they have the same questions and face the same problem—that’s  exactly what we cover in this book. You’ll learn:
  • The real secrets of how the pros retouch portraits
  • How to color correct any photo with out breaking a sweat (you’ll be amazed at how they do it!)
  • How to use Camera Raw for processing not only RAW photos, but JPEGs and TIFFs, too! (And you’ll learn why so many pros like it best—because it’s faster and easier)
  • The sharpening techniques the pros really use (there’s an entire chapter just on this!)
  • How to deal with common digital camera image problems, including removing noise and avoiding halos
  • The most requested photographic special effects, and much more!
THE BOOK’S SECRET WEAPON
Although Elements 9 offers some digital photography features that Photoshop CS5 doesn’t offer, there are plenty of features that Photoshop CS5 has that Elements 9 still doesn’t have (things like paths, Channel Mixer, etc.). But in this book, you’ll learn some slick workarounds, cheats, and some fairly ingenious ways to replicate many of those Photoshop features from right within Elements. Plus, since this book is designed for photographers, it doesn’t waste your time talking about how to frame a shot, set your exposure, etc., and there’s no talk about which camera or printer to buy. It’s all Elements, step-by-step, cover-to-cover, in the only book of its  kind!

4.0 out of 5 stars cuts thru the bull.. just the facts, Jan 10 2011
By 
This review is from: The Photoshop Elements 9 Book for Digital Photographers (Paperback)
This book is for those who are familiar with the tools of photoshop elements and want to know how to apply those tools to process images in need of tweaking.
If you glance thru most texts, they spend lots of time re-hashing what the tools are and what they do. you dont need a book for this. Adobe gives you online tutorials, youtube gives you some basic knowledge and the online help also explains what the tools do.
what this book gives you are the steps to accomplish a task, such as erasing blemishes. no long drawn out descriptions.
very consise.. a perfect reference manual.
just the facts.
no fluff.
of course, giving you the processes in a consise manner with little background, you may not really at times, not really understand why he is doing what he is doing.. but if you follow each exercise , you will succeed is producting the shots you need. Part of my photography is sold on stock photography sites, and they expect technical excellence.
this book has helped me to gain the expertise to produce wonderfull images.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Reference Book, Jan 21 2011
This review is from: The Photoshop Elements 9 Book for Digital Photographers (Paperback)
This is an excellent reference book on the new Photoshop Elements 9. Many examples are given - and are clearly explained. The book covers the whole of PE9 concentrating on the new additions to the software. The additions have been so helpful that I have used them to improve older photos (originals) that I had difficulty with.
