Good To Have On Hand

This is a very handy book for a new camera. It makes finding all the settings and features very easy. Plus it fits in my camera bag nicely. I wish I had one for my last camera.

Informative, really good pictures for seeing what you're doing, and helps me to digest the information easily.

Smaller than I expected, but it's a beautiful addition to my drawing skills educational books. I'd love to read other books from this series.

Totally worth it!

I love the rocky nook books. I have many and have always taken things away from them and learned something new. This one is no different!

Rocky Nook d500 pocket guide

This is more of an identifier of buttons and their functions. Don't expect it to answer a question or give a short cut to a menu selection.

Mirrorless Camera Help

One of the best books to learn about your camera. Shows you how to do things in the menu rather than just show you where they are as in the user guide.

Fantastic resource for learning the WHATs of the Canon 5D Mark IV

Got a concern with the Canon 5D Mark IV. Check the index and find a concise definition and solution. A great resource for learning the many features of the Canon 5D Mark IV. Other camera books have been just so-so. This one is easy to read and find out what you need.

Helpful and full of aid

This book provided my little sister with all the resources to help guide her in the direction of an artist. She was struggling with creating proportionate figures and shapes to portray a realistic image, and with this book she now has the motivation to go and improve on her art further. I highly recommend this towards up and coming artists.

Written by a drone cinematographer guru. A must have for better drone shots.i

Beautiful, informative, well written and, of course, well illustrated book. Certainly a must for first time drone photographers with lots of tips. Have purchased two more copies to give as Christmas gifts to friend drone flyers.

Factory second?

The one I purchased had defects that lead me to believe it’s a factory second.

It is full of information that is truly helpful and clear to understand for beginners who are not familiar with a DSLR camera.

I would give this Five Stars.

There’s a noteworthy nugget in every chapter

Great book. Working my way through. So much insight, simple to read and understand. First camera purchase in many years. I was thankful it has the basics and more advanced chapters to work on. Very well written and thought out for the working photographer. So not the manufacturers manual. Practical, and concise. I highly recommend this book. There’s a nugget in every chapter!

Learn how to take professional-quality photographs using the same tricks today's top photographers use (surprisingly, it's easier than you'd think)!
This is a completely, totally updated version of the #1 best-selling digital photography book of all time! It's the award winning, worldwide smash hit, written by Scott Kelby, that's been translated into dozens of different languages.

Here's how Scott describes this book's brilliant premise: "If you and I were out on a shoot, and you asked me, 'Hey, how do I get this flower to be in focus, with the background out of focus?,' I wouldn't stand there and give you a photography lecture. In real life, I'd just say, 'Put on your zoom lens, set your f-stop to f/2.8, focus on the flower, and fire away.' That's what this book is all about: you and I out shooting where I answer questions, give you advice, and share the secrets I've learned just like I would with a friend-without all the technical explanations and techie photo speak."

This isn't a book of theory-full of confusing jargon and detailed concepts. This is a book on which button to push, which setting to use, and when to use it. With over 200 of the most closely guarded photographic "tricks of the trade," this book gets you shooting dramatically better-looking, sharper, more colorful, more professional-looking photos every time.

Each page covers a single concept that makes your photography better. Every time you turn the page, you'll learn another pro setting, tool, or trick to transform your work from snapshots into gallery prints. If you're tired of taking shots that look "okay," and if you're tired of looking in photography magazines and thinking, "Why don't my shots look like that?" then this is the book for you.
