How to Do Everything: Digital Camera” Reviews:

Review by Chuck Albert
Rate:
I found this book ideal as it is written for the amateur photographer that is new to digital photography, which basically describe my status. There is a lot of useful information in its 376 pages. It is well indexed and organized so that topics are easy to find.The book is an easy read and is well illustrated, but suffers from a lack of colour. Obviously by eliminating colour and binding with a soft cover the publisher has been able to meet a price point. It’s too bad the author does not published colour plates on his website to compensate for this lack of colour.While I own a Kodak DC4800 3.1 Digital Camera and therefore would like to see more information on my specific camera, the author balances that desire by covering digital photography without being too camera brand specific.I have read Dennis Curtin’s A Short Course in Nikon Coolpix 950 Photography and would rate Dave Johnson’s book as a more instructive book. I think Johnson’s book will remain a good reference work for some years.

As a person experienced with technology but not knowledgeable about photography, I found this book to be a great resource. I bought my first digital camera, but didn’t know how to get its features to “work for me” to take the pictures I wanted. So once I got the book I skipped straight to the chapters on basic photography — including exposure, composition, and lighting — which were invaluable. The author has a casual style (humorous on occasion, but the book is not burdened with quips), and he explains concepts in a way that’s accomodating to novices, yet with enough detail to satisfy the technically oriented. After reading the chapters through once, I felt as if I had completed a basic photography class.However, while I think the photography info itself merits 5 stars, the book as a whole fell a bit short. First, there are a few blatant errors, such as incorrectly referenced figures and wrong pictures, that were irksome (although they didn’t much hinder the learning experience). Second, the large portion on image editing doesn’t provide much new info for those already familiar with popular photo editing software — it’s strictly for newbies. Third, the black and white photos were poorly suited to illustrate certain concepts, especially those involving color. A color insert containing all the photos as they were originally shot would have helped. In summary, this is definitely a worthwhile book for the overall digital photography novice. Those who are also new to computer hardware and software will likely reap the greatest return for their investment. Computer “geeks” may need to supplement this book with something more advanced on software.

This book delivered exactly what I was looking for. I have had a digital camera for three years, and realized that my lack of knowledge in the basic principals of photography was holding me back. Not only did this book explain clearly and effectively the basics of photography, but it taught me to get the most out of my digital camera’s capabilities. I was getting frustrated and now I am enjoying my camera again.I also wanted to learn what to look for in a higher-end camera down the line, and this was covered as well. I understand how to weigh the different features against the kind of pictures I want to take.Well written and useful. I recommend it.

I highly recommend Jerry Bruckner’s book: “The Success Formula For Personal Growth”. It’s fun to read, highly inspirational, and can improve your personal and business life!

I downloaded the ebook sample and it impressed me with the benefits and quality of the book. I then bought the ebook and paperback editions. The ebook version is one of the best formatted and professional looking ebooks I have seen.

***** Best Inspirational Quotations Book:

Do you enjoy reading positive, inspirational quotations that can instantly brighten up your mood, or be used to set the tone for creative or challenging work?

I’ve read the leading inspirational and motivational quotations books. Jerry’s book contains the best collection of quotes for personal and business success.

In addition to being a very enjoyable book to casually read, there is no finer reference book to locate particular quotations by topic or by author. Jerry has wonderfully organized the 2,000 quotes into over 80 topics: “personal and business success lessons,” that are detailed in the Table of Contents. Also, each quote is cross-referenced by author name and page number in a separate Index. (Please note: The Index is only available in the paperback, not the eBook).

***** Best Personal Development Book:

Jerry has done a spectacular job to create an entertaining, very clear and practical handbook of all personal development principles to inspire and empower people to change and improve their personal and business life.

Through the entertaining format of using inspirational quotes and wisdom from hundreds of the most successful people combined with hundreds of his own tips, based on his lifelong commitment to personal growth and helping others to develop their abilities, Jerry guides the reader through concepts of self-discovery and personal development, to set and accomplish major meaningful goals and become successful in their personal and business life.

Jerry’s insights and tips reveal a deep appreciation for personal growth and practical self empowerment combined, with a rock solid belief in the value of developing strong personal character.

As I read the quotations and Jerry’s tips for each success principle in “The Success Formula For Personal Growth” I found myself gently encouraged to think deeper and deeper about my life and how I can make changes and take consistent focused action to align myself with the principles, to develop a happier and more fulfilled and successful life.

This book is the perfect gift for you, your family, friends and co-workers.

“Tae Kwon Do Belt”

The belts and their colors that are used with Taekwondo aren’t just a random assortment of colors that are used to separate the ranks in the martial art.
