Rezensionen / Stimmen
"While this fine introduction to contemporary digital imaging was penned as a textbook by two university professors, don't expect it to be dry and academic. Rather, it is thorough but concise, in-depth, and replete with practical tips and lots of color illustrations." - EDigital Photo
"Whether you are a student or, like myself, a long-tooth after some top tips, Galer and Horvat's book should find a good home."
Joel Lacey, Amateur Photographer
"...[part of] a series of very well laid out books with a clear step by step approach to each subject, coupled with examples, activities to try out, and assignments. Included are gallerys which give an inspiration into what can be achieved, along with recommended further reading."
