Shoot, Sort, Edit, Exhibit: Empowering the Photographer Within

Sebastopol, CA--Who doesn't crave higher megapixels, interchangeable
lenses, and larger, noise-free sensors? With huge price drops in digital
single-lens reflex (SLR) cameras, folks in record numbers are rushing to
buy these tricked-out devices. Yet many owners of pro-quality digital SLRs
find it daunting to acquire the technical know-how necessary to get the
most out of their new gear and software.

What they need is an up-to-the-minute reference guide written in clear,
easy-to-understand language. And with the just released "Digital
Photography Expert Techniques" (O'Reilly, $44.99 US, $58.99 CA)--now fully
updated by award-winning photographer Ken Milburn--there's a one-stop
resource available.

"I felt a crying need for a book that could solve the problems that
serious hobbyists and pro photographers face daily," says this
best-selling author of twenty-seven books. Indeed, with "Expert
Techniques" in one hand, aspiring photographers, enthusiasts, and
professionals quickly grasp how to choose the right equipment, set up a
digital darkroom, organize a workflow sequence, and apply advanced editing
techniques.

Milburn reveals do-it-yourself insider tips and established professional
methods, giving readers expertise in:

-Making reversible adjustments
-Using camera RAW for creating effects
-Using lighting effects and lens flare filters
-Organizing professional images for albums, exhibits, websites, or
 publications

Loaded with full color instructional photos, this reference can help
everyone shoot and display compelling images--from family and vacation
albums to artistic collages. Throughout "Digital Photography Expert
Techniques," Milburn strives to "make producing the highest quality
photographs" enjoyable and efficient for working professionals and
