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.

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.

This book is very in depth and informative and well worth the price. It goes into much more detail than the camera manual and expands on the functions.

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!

Great book - step-by-step approach to learning the a6400

Excellent! Having the a6400 in one hand and the book in the other David Busch takes you step by step into being comfortable with this multi-faceted camera. Illustrative pictures that make following along much easier. This is my first interchangeable lens camera and there is a learning curve that needs to be met - and Busch has done a credible job. I'm about 1/3 of the way finished with this 426-page book. Maybe there should be a simple pocket version to accompany the text. It would make carrying it around much easier.

About Rocky Nook Guide Book

Apple's Photos for OS X app was designed from the ground up to help you organize, edit, and share your pictures and videos. While the interface appears simple, finding the hidden nuances of Photos is not so straightforward. And with the launch of the latest Photos app, there's more to this app than initially meets the eye.

For photographers who are more than just casual snapshooters, or who are making the transition from Aperture, iPhoto, or simply the previous version of Photos, The Apple Photos Book for Photographers, 2nd Edition, by Derrick Story shines a light on the true sophistication of this app and the ecosystem it taps into. From the point of view of a working photographer, Derrick provides everything you need to know to get the most out of the imaging tools built into Mac OS X and iCloud.

Follow along with Derrick as he teaches you all about:

• Customizing the interface for organizing and viewing your images
• The thinking behind viewing options such as Moments, Collections, Years, and Albums
• Working with iCloud Photo Library to sync your photos across your devices
• Adding location data to your images so you can map your travels with your photos
• Editing your images with Photos' basic tools, then going beyond with more advanced techniques
• Integrating third-party Editing Extensions into your workflow so you can build a digital darkroom tailored to your style of photography
• Creating projects such as books, cards, calendars, prints, and slideshows-and showing you how to create your own Fine Art Cards at home with just your Mac and an inkjet printer
• Working with videos as well as still photos
• Sharing your images on social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and Flickr

Apple's Photos is a robust, all-in-one solution for managing, editing, and sharing your photos. And The Apple Photos Book for Photographers is all you need to make the most of this great imaging ecosystem!
