Michelle Perkins explores ways of producing interesting - even surprising - photographic effects. Beginning with techniques for digital cameras, she shows readers how to use 'incorrect' exposures to produce some striking images and how poor focus can be consciously applied for dramatic results. Also covered are tips for photographing reflections for pleasingly distorted or abstract images, presenting extreme close-up views of subjects and more. Perkins then moves on to demonstrate how to use basic digital imaging software to take images to the next levels.

Here's a simple solution for learning how to get the most out of your digital camera, how to take better photos, and what to do with your images once they've been captured. Written by an award-winning photographer, "How to Do Everything with Your Digital Camera, Fourth Edition" is just the book you need! Loaded with clear explanations and step-by-step details, the book explains the different components of a variety of digital cameras and how to use them.

"TechTV's Digital Camera and Imaging Guide" is a complete resource to use "before and after" buying a digital camera. You'll get expert advice from Les Freed, a "PC Magazine" editor who writes reviews on the newest consumer digital cameras and compatible software and hardware. This guide covers choosing the right camera, hardware, software, and Web resources, and shows how to capture, edit, store, and share images easily and with no previous photography experience.
