In transitioning from film to digital, I needed some books for a quick transition and to avoid reinventing the wheel. I don't have a lot of time, so a focused and detailed reference that could rapidly take me to a functional level was needed. I was very happy with the accessibility and the level of detail presented. I read the whole thing, but realize that I will need to go back to it to get the full value from it (e.g., when I find the need for a particular technique or action). It does address workflow, but that is not its focus, which I would describe as more of a broad, but sufficiently detailed introduction to many issues and techniques available to the digital photographer.

I did not want another "How To" digitaly photography book. What I wanted was information anologous to studying computer informations systems at the bit level and I found it in Pro Digital Photographer's Handbook. All of the "why" questions are laid out in meticulous detail. A wonderous tool for those looking to move on beyond point and shoot barrier.

This is one of those books that you will want to read and then reference. I have been a film SLR photographer for decades and now am on my second generation DSLR. This book reminds me of my old Kodak Photographers Handbook and my Nikon SLR handbook. I think I will use the Pro Digital Photographer's Handbook for many years.

Michael's information about sensor technology compared to film and how lense design affects this is one example of the depth of topic in this great handbook. He also covers the digital workflow from simple (little to no editing) to complex (steps for client based work). The color management section was very useful to calibrate all my devices.

I highly recommend this book for the photographer who understands the basics - depth of field, apertures, shutter speed, etc. (Although he has a great section about sensor size and depth of field).

Buy it and enjoy it!

This is a great book. It's what I've been looking for since I switched from film to a Nikon digital SLR about 18 months ago. A book that really goes into detail on things like shooting RAW, colour management, colour modes, profiling and calibration, how to clean dust off the camera sensor (a REAL problem that the manufacturers keep pretty quiet about), wireless transmission of images, and so on. I know these are all nitty-gritty subjects, but you need to understand them if you're serious about digital photography. Other books I've looked at tend to tackle them only superficially. This book gets to grips with them all. It's like the "Missing Manual" for my camera. I really like it, and strongly recommend it.

Oh, and Michael Freeman takes great pictures, too!

So, you want to be a professional photographer? If so, you need this book to provide the kind of information you'll need when starting out. It contains all the nitty-gritty details that are an essential part of learning to turn pro, including information on meeting the needs and expectations of your clients. That's the kind of practical business advice you won't find in other digital photography books.

The amount of useful information in this book is amazing.

This book is significantly better than I thought it might be. Really good explanations of all parts of digital photography that someone with a new SLR needs to know. This book is above the level of describing depth of field, and the standard SLR questions. Only down side I have found is that the book is a bit Nikon focussed. Those of us with Canons would like a bit more for us!

This is a well written digital photo book. It's a great for beginners and reference for experienced photographers. I strongly recommend.
