Good for Photographers September 7, 2008

Firstly don't let the humour comments put you off - it' not that bad. What the book does for digital photographers is tell you how to post process for great results and how to do some neat effects; what it doesn't do is explain why or what some of the steps are for. If you are creative or want to understand the workings of CS3 then look elsewhere. I got the CS3 Bible as well (which does the opposite - give the how and why but not much about what you can achieve) and between the two I got what I needed. br / br /The book is nicely illustrated and all the steps to get the effects are clear and easy to follow.

If you have Photoshop, this book will simply help you understand it and start making it work for you. br /Forget all the comments about Scott Kelby's humour, its an easy to read book that explains things well. br /I also bought the Dummies book for CS3, it really isn't a patch on this one and just doesn't explain anything clearly. br /Buy this book and you will be a Kelby fan for life (even if he is an American!)

I have been amateur photographer for years and have long since left my darkroom behind. br /In recent times my interest has been revived by the new high quality digital pocket camera. In my case a Panasonic TZ3 br /Having played about with Photoshop I soon found I was getting nowhere fast until that is I purchased Scott Kebly's The Adobe Photoshop CS3 book. br /I truly love this book; its step by step guide is a dream to use. Full of colour photos to accompany the instruction is great. br /I used my own photos whilst going following the instructions which truly change the quality of the finished image. br /I agree with other reviewers that Scott's humour is very American but don't let this put you off buying a truly great book. I would say the book is for the beginner to intermediate Photoshop user but has something for everyone. br /The only down side is that I have hundreds of digital photos waiting for some Photoshop treatment. br /Good luck any enjoy your copy. br /

In a moment of extravagance I bought both Scott Kelby's and Martin Evening's books on Photoshop CS3. I have since sold the Scott Kelby book after giving up halfway through ! If you want to make friends with a needy, middle aged man, then this is the book for you. I just got sick of the corny jokes and the lack of focus. On too many occasions I found myself skipping pages and paragraphs of irrelevant "chat". In contrast Martin Evening's book is up to his usual high standard. It,s beautifully organised and has a clear focus on each aspect of the program in turn. guess which "Lightroom" book I bought?
AMAZING BOOK June 29, 2008

Having bought other boooks of Scott and read online reviews I was confident that this book would be up to standard. br /Before I read this book 6 weeks ago I knew next to nothing of photoshop; now I am a competent user who knows many methods and "tricks" and am able to produce quality pictures. br /The book is a pleasure to read, gives one the desire and ability to develop one's skills further and I refer to the book again and again. Buy it! br /
