Ken Storch Photo Blog – All Things Photographic, All Thoughts Photographic
A review of the book “A Short Course in Digital Photography” by Barbara London and Jim Stone, Prentice Hall, ISBN-10: 0205645925, ISBN-13: 978-0205645923
Photographers, students, and teachers are always asking me for book recommendations on digital photography and for tips on improving their photography technique. Are you looking for such a book? Is this latest offering by authors Barbara London and Jim Stone, “A Short Course in Digital Photography” the best book for you too?
At this time (early 2009) digital cameras are everywhere, in cell phones, in point and shoot little cameras, and even casual shooters may be using DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex) cameras.
Local and online retailers selling photographic film and darkroom equipment are keeping fewer and fewer offerings in stock. Custom labs are faltering if they still exist in a given market.
It makes sense, once again, to reexamine the future of film, film cameras, black & white printing, and the traditional wet darkroom in the digital era.
I recommend saving money with this an SD SDHC to CF Adapter. If you have some digital camera memory cards in the Secure Digital SD or SDHC formats, you can use them in your Compact Flash card device, a digital camera, an MP3 player, or a laptop.
Why Your Next Digital Camera Sux!
And, the one you buy after that, too!
That’s because we are still in the adolescent years of digital imaging.
