Digital Photography Books For Beginners

Digital Photography and the Cell Phone Era

As digital photography became more popular, we saw the introduction of camera phones. What used to be a device that was used solely from audio communications became a quick on the go way to take photographs. The ability of cell phones to take photographs meant that people didn’t have to worry about carrying a camera every where they went. Though the pictures you take on a cell phone are not usually of the same quality as those you take with a standalone digital camera, it is certainly far better than missing a shot because you forgot the camera or because you didn’t think it would be needed.



 



The thing to remember about digital photography on a cell phone is the quality is not going to match that of a standalone digital camera. Of course, different phones will offer different quality. Just like some cell phones have very high musical quality but low quality cameras, the same holds true in reverse. You have to look at the camera phone you are considering and determine if it has the quality you seek. You also want to remember that not every camera phone has flash capabilities, so unless you do not anticipate using your camera phone to take pictures anywhere but outdoors during the daylight hours, you want to make sure you purchase a phone that includes a flash.



 



With the digital photography that is available on cell phones there is no need to worry about missing an important event though in most cases the capabilities of cell phone cameras are limited when compared to an ordinary digital camera. That doesn’t mean that they are inferior products as such but rather that their capabilities are limited. It would be rather difficult to have a combination product with perfect features in every respect—there must be one feature that is better than the other. The basic concept of a cell phone is for audio communication thus anything beyond that is going to have limited capabilities. 



 



The choice you make when you buy a cell phone is a personal one based on your immediate needs. You do want to keep in mind that each model has specific capabilities that you must consider before you make the purchase. If you are looking for a cell phone with high quality digital photography capabilities, you will have to pay more for it.

Top 7 Photography Books

If you love a photographer, then you'll want to print a copy of this list. These are the most wished for books on Amazon. This means there is probably a book or two on this list your photographer would love. Save yourself some time by using this list as a shopping list. Your photographer will love you for it.

1. National Geographic Image Collection by National Geographic, Michelle Anne Delaney, Maura Mulvihill (5.0 out of 5 stars)

Behind National Geographic's worldwide reputation as a powerhouse of photography lies one of the finest, most extensive, and most unique graphic resources on Earth: the National Geographic Image Collection. For the first time ever, readers will plumb the fascinating depths of this immense archive from the earliest photographs collected in the late 19th century to the cutting-edge work of today.

2. The Digital Photography Book, Volume 3 by Scott Kelby (4.3 out of 5 stars)

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.'

3. VisionMongers: Making a Life and a Living in Photography by David duChemin (4.9 out of 5 stars)

A book for any photographer who's ever felt compelled to combine their craft with the world of commerce and make the transition to becoming a vocational photographer. More like a sketchbook of ideas and wisdom than it is a system to get rich quick on photography, VisionMongers takes a look at the changing landscape of professional photography and the various journeys that can be taken to get there.

4. Within the Frame: The Journey of Photographic Vision by David duChemin (4.8 out of 5 stars)

A book about finding and expressing your photographic vision, specifically where people, places, and cultures are concerned. A personal book full of real-world wisdom and incredible images, author David duChemin (of pixelatedimage.com) shows you both the how and the why of finding, chasing, and expressing your vision with a camera to your eye.

5. The Photographer's Eye: Composition and Design for Better Digital Photos by Michael Freeman (4.6 out of 5 stars)

Design is the single most important factor in creating a successful photograph. The ability to see the potential for a strong picture and then organize the graphic elements into an effective, compelling composition has always been one of the key skills in making photographs.

6. The Digital Photography Book, Volume 2 by Scott Kelby (4.6 out of 5 stars)

In Volume 2, Scott adds entirely new chapters packed with Plain English tips on using flash, shooting close up photography, travel photography, shooting people, and even how to build a studio from scratch, where he demystifies the process so anyone can start taking pro-quality portraits today! Plus, he's got full chapters on his most requested topics.

7. The Moment It Clicks: Photography Secrets From One of the World's Top Shooters by Joe McNally (4.2 out of 5 stars)

Joe McNally, one of the world's top pro digital photographers, breaks new ground by doing something no photography book has ever done-blending the rich, stunning images and elegant layout of a coffee-table book with the invaluable training, no-nonsense insights, and photography secrets usually found only in those rare, best-of-breed educational books.

You don't want to miss out on the rest of the list. Check out http://bestslrcamera.org/photography-books/10-best-photography-books. I'm sure you'll find something your photographer will love. And guess who gets the credit....you.

what are the best/most informative digital wedding photography books.?

I am looking to get in to wedding photography and would like to pick up some books, what are some good ones for a beginner, I noticed a lot of them talk about transition from film which I don't need.


Are you a beginning photographer? Try some basic photography first. Wedding photography is not a genre for novice photographers.

I am all for learning through books, but weddings are one thing that may be best learned as an apprentice to a working photographer. (That is assuming that you have quite a bit of knowledge af photography in general, and understand both technical and artistic basics.) That's not to say you can't get anything from a book, of course you can depending largely on your learning style and self-motivation. One book for any photographer has to be "Understanding Exposure" by Bryan Peterson. He also has books on portraiture and composition that are well done. For weddings specifically, "Portrait Photography Handbook", Monte Zucker, "Existing Light for Wedding and Portrait Photography", Bill Hurter, and Steve Sint's "Wedding Photography: Art, Business and Style". "The Art of Wedding Photography" by Bambi Cantrell.

Again I stress weddings are not for new photographers. It is harder than it seems, and the stakes are high for the parties involved. Best wishes.
