The Digital Photography Book, Part 3 (Paperback)

Scott Kelby, author of The Digital Photography Book, volume 1 (the world’s best-selling digital photography book of all time), is back with a follow-up to his volume 2 smash best seller, with an entirely new book that picks up right where he left off. It’s even more of that “Ah ha—so that’s how they do it,” straight-to-the-point, skip-the-techno-jargon stuff you can really use today to make your shots even better.

This book truly has a brilliant premise, and here’s how Scott describes it: “If you and I were out on a shoot and you asked me, ‘Hey Scott, I want the light for this portrait to look really soft and flattering. How far back should I put this softbox?’ I wouldn’t give you a lecture about lighting ratios, or flash modifiers. In real life, I’d just turn to you and say, ‘Move it in as close to your subject as you possibly can, without it actually showing up in the shot.’ Well, that’s what this book is all about: you and I out shooting where I answer questions, give you advice, and share the secrets I’ve learned, just like I would with a friend—without all the technical explanations and techie photo speak.”

Each page covers a single concept on how to make your photography better. Every time you turn the page, you’ll learn another pro setting, tool, or trick to transform your work from snapshots into gallery prints. If you’re tired of taking shots that look “okay,” and if you’re tired of looking in photography magazines and thinking, “Why don’t my shots look like that?” then this is the book for you.

This isn’t a book of theory—full of confusing jargon and detailed concepts. This is a book on which button to push, which setting to use, and when to use it. With nearly 200 more of the most closely guarded photographic “tricks of the trade,” this book gets you shooting dramatically better-looking, sharper, more colorful, more professional-looking photos every time.

《數位攝影書，第一卷》（有史以來最暢銷的數位攝影書）的作者Scott Kelby回歸了，他推出了續集《數位攝影書，第二卷》，這本全新的書籍從他上一本書的地方繼續講述。這本書更多地提供了那種「啊哈，原來是這樣做的」的直接、不涉及技術術語的內容，你可以立即運用這些內容來拍攝更好的照片。

這本書的概念非常出色，Scott這樣描述它：“如果你和我一起外出拍攝，你問我：‘嘿，Scott，我希望這張肖像的光線看起來柔和而有利。我應該把這個軟盒放多遠？’我不會給你一堂關於光線比例或閃光燈改裝器的講座。在現實生活中，我只會轉向你說：‘把它盡可能靠近你的主題，但不要讓它出現在照片中。’嗯，這本書就是關於這個的：你和我一起拍攝，我回答問題，給你建議，分享我學到的秘訣，就像對待朋友一樣，沒有太多的技術解釋和專業術語。”

每一頁都介紹了一個讓你的攝影更好的概念。每翻一頁，你都會學到一個專業的設置、工具或技巧，將你的作品從快照轉變為畫廊級的印刷品。如果你厭倦了拍攝看起來“還可以”的照片，如果你厭倦了看攝影雜誌時想：“為什麼我的照片看起來不像那樣？”那麼這本書就是為你而寫的。

這不是一本充滿混亂術語和詳細概念的理論書。這本書告訴你應該按哪個按鈕，使用哪個設置，以及何時使用它。這本書揭示了近200個最為保密的攝影“行業技巧”，讓你每次拍攝的照片看起來更好、更清晰、更色彩豐富、更專業。
