I went right to the beginning and decided to cover photography techniques like lighting,
composition, and close-ups. And hopefully you??™ll find that the book walks you through the
key steps of using a digital camera, from working with memory cards to file formats to editing
images on a PC to printing and finally, to sharing your images.
The world of digital photography is changing fast. It??™s finally crawling out of its infancy, but
it has a way to go before digital is as easy to use as a point-and-shoot film camera. But this is a
great time to purchase and use a digital camera, and I hope that some of my enthusiasm for the
digital medium comes through. I love the freedom and flexibility that a digital camera gives me;
armed with my Nikon D200 or Canon Powershot G7, I can take pictures without worrying about
buying film. I can instantly preview my work and download just the images I want to keep. And
I particularly like the fact that I can print 8?—10- or 13?—19-inch enlargements exactly the way
I want without trying to convey imprecise instructions to some tech in a photo shop. I even use a
digital camera underwater when scuba diving, and that, too, is a whole new and exciting world of
photography that is made dramatically easier by digital cameras.
