Digital Photography for Dummies
Author: Julie Adair King
If you are relatively new to digital cameras or would just like to know more then I can recommend Digital Photography for Dummies. I have a number of books in the For Dummies series and find them one of the best ways to start to get to grips with sometimes difficult subjects. This book covers a lot of ground. As well as going through the basics of a digital camera it also gives you some great tips on composition to help you take better photos. There is also a very worthwhile section on how you can enhance your images through using software.

The A-Z of Creative Photography
Author: Lee Frost
Over the past few years I have amassed a large collection of photography books. My favourite author is Lee Frost and I own far more of his books than anyone else's. I find his writing style very easy to understand and he has been a big help to me in improving my photography in general. Despite his great knowledge Lee is still able to explain the subject so it can be clearly understood by someone with little or no photography experience. I have selected this book as it is a great problem solver. Whilst it can be read from cover to cover the topics are arranged so it is simple for you to pick an area where you would like to improve and understand more clearly. This is well suited to beginners or people at an intermediate level. Reading this book is a great way to start taking better photos. |
