This ultimate comprehensive photography book is revolutionary in four ways:
1)
FREE VIDEO TRAINING. Over an hour of hands-on video tutorials
integrated into the book's content. If your eReader can play video (such
as the Kindle app on an iPhone/iPad/Android, or the Kindle Fire),
clicking the links when you have an Internet connection will load the
video directly within your eReader.
2) NEVER OUTDATED. This book
is regularly updated with new content (including additional videos) that
existing owners receive for free. As new photography trends emerge and
new camera equipment and lenses are released, you'll see them described
in the book immediately.
3) 400+ HIGH RESOLUTION, ORIGINAL
PICTURES. Detailed example pictures demonstrate both good and bad
technique, all taken by the author himself in nine different countries.
Most photo books use stock photography taken by other photographers.
Zoom into the pictures by double-tapping your screen (on a Kindle Fire)
or pinching-and-pulling your fingers apart (on an iPad/iPhone/Android).
4) HANDS-ON PRACTICES. Complete the practices at the end of every chapter to get the real world experience you need.
