DSLR Photography Book

Image via Wikipedia

I have just finished one book about DSLR Photography which I borrowed from the library, and it is very basic and gets me into the world of digital SLR photography.

The good points is that this is very graphical, especially when it comes to the explanations on the camera features and technical aspects - even a primary-level pupil will definitely grasp the idea. Yap, as I said it, may be able to grab the idea, but not totally the concept - yet.

That is how very basic and down-to-earth this book is, and while I have read many other books on DSLR, some very technical, and some others in plain English, where the focus is 'what to do to get a particular shot' and altogether swerving away from any technical explanations, still this other book is quite informative in that the technical side of DSLR is explained in a very basic manner that will interest even the layman.

What book is that again?

The Complete Idiot's Guide to Photography Essentials.

And many a times I have read books under the 'Dummies...' and 'Idiot's Guide...' categories, and mind you, they are quite for people that are not dummies or idiots... you know what I mean.

Frankly, I want to lift from that book the websites that offer help, assistance and tutorials, and the likes, which will be of great value to aspiring photographers like me, a novice and beginner who will need all the help I can get. And I'm happy to have enrolled/subscribed already to one of the sites listed below before i even came across it in the book.
