Photographers Digital Studio

This book will show you how to turn your Mac or PC into a digital darkroom. The Photographer's Digital Studio is written for people who already know how to create images using conventional photo gear and techniques but may not be familiar with their digital equivalents. In a clear, step-by-step fashion and using the concepts and language of traditional photography, the book explains: how digital images are constructed vs. film images; the basic computer gear needed to make the switch to digital photography; how to import images into digital form; how to manipulate those photos for the best results; and how to output them in accurate and useable form. Special emphasis is placed on using Photoshop, the application of choice for digital image manipulation.
