An Introduction to Electronic Imaging for Photographers

This is an introductory text for anyone wishing to get to grips with electronic imaging. It is particularly appropriate for the growing number of electronic imaging courses now available, based as it is on the HNC and HND courses which have been pioneered at the North East Surrey College of Technology. The book covers the relationship between electronics and the photographer. It gives comprehensive coverage of the cameras and scanners, the computers and disks, the actual image processing and how to prepare material for desktop publishing and pre-press. The growing number of applications for electronic imaging are also covered, together with the related problems of ethics and copyright.
