Peachpit Press Press: Your Camera Loves You: Learn to Love It Back, Softcover Book By Khara Plicanic

With Your Camera Loves You: Learn to Love it Back, photographer and instructor Khara Plicanic teaches the basics of photography and digital camera functions that you can apply to any camera, anywhere, any time-answering questions like: What do all those different modes mean and when do I use them? What's a megapixel and why should I care? Follow along with Khara's simple explanations of shutter speed, aperture and shooting modes to get comfortable handling your camera (even bossing it around a bit!), learn to shoot images that tell a story and understand the thought process involved in making a great photograph. Along the way you'll learn techniques for improving those yellow dingy photos of your kids' indoor sporting events, fixing exposure on shots that are too dark or too bright, avoiding the dangers of over-cropping and much more. By the time you're finished, you'll know how to best use the features of whatever camera you already have-whether it's a high-performance DSLR or a basic point-and-shoot camera.
