The Digital Photography Book, Part 2, 2/e

Scott Kelby, author of The Digital Photography Book, part 1, the top-selling digital photography book of all time, is back with an entirely new book that picks up right where part 1 left off. It's more of that “Ah ha–so that's how they do it,” straight-to-the-point, skip-thetechno- jargon stuff you can really use today that made part 1 so successful.

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, ‘When I use my flash, the background behind the person I’m shooting turns black. How do I fix that?’ I wouldn’t give you a lecture on flash ratios, or start a discussion on flash synchronization and rear curtain sync. I’d just say, ‘Lower your shutter speed to 1/60 of a second. That should do it.’ 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 over 200 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，第一部》的作者Scott Kelby回歸了，他的這本書是有史以來最暢銷的數位攝影書。這本全新的書籍接續著第一部的內容，依然以直截了當、實用的方式呈現，讓你立即能夠應用其中的技巧，這也是第一部書籍取得成功的原因。

這本書的概念非常精彩，Scott這樣描述它：“如果你和我一起外出拍攝，你問我：『當我使用閃光燈時，我拍攝的人物背後的背景變黑了，該怎麼解決？』我不會給你一堂關於閃光燈比例的講座，或是開始討論閃光燈同步和後簾同步的問題。我只會說：『將快門速度降至1/60秒，應該就可以了。』這本書就是關於這樣的情境：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，不需要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上一層樓的概念。翻開每一頁，你都會學到一個專業的設定、工具或技巧，讓你的作品從隨手拍攝變成畫廊級的作品。如果你厭倦了拍攝出來的照片只是“還可以”，如果你厭倦了看攝影雜誌時心想：“為什麼我的照片看起來不像這樣？”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，使用哪個設定，以及何時使用它們。這本書收錄了超過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加出色、更加清晰、更加色彩豐富、更加專業。
